I'm actively working on setting up a Proxmox Virtual Environment (VE) to host multiple virtual machines and containers as part of a self-hosted infrastructure project. The goal is to create a scalable and secure platform for experimenting with network services, cybersecurity tools, and automation workflows.
I developed and deployed a ticketing system on a Linux-based server, leveraging Docker to ensure a modular and easily maintainable environment. The system uses Peppermint, a lightweight and efficient open-source ticketing solution, to manage and track support requests. By containerizing the application with Docker, I streamlined the deployment process and...
I deployed and configured a self-hosted VPN server to enable secure, encrypted remote access to my home network. Using OpenVPN, I implemented certificate-based authentication, disabled password logins, and configured firewall rules to restrict unnecessary ports. The setup enhances privacy and allows secure browsing over untrusted networks. This project reinforced my...
I set up a self-hosted Jellyfin media server on a Linux-based home server with a static IP address. To maintain security, the server is only accessible from within the local network or remotely through a self-hosted VPN, effectively restricting external exposure. The system is configured to run directly on the...
I configured an SFTP server on a Linux-based system to allow secure, encrypted file transfers over SSH. The server supports shell access for authenticated users, with individual accounts configured to ensure appropriate access levels. I implemented SSH key-based authentication to enhance login security and configured the firewall to restrict access...
Studied information systems while attending Community College of Philadelphia which gave taught me the basics of computers, software development, networking, and cybersecurity. Various labs allowed me to have hands-on experience with Cisco packet tracer, Splunk, MySQL, and complete programming projects involving Python and Java.
