About me

Hi, I'm dap.

Systems Administrator specializing in Cybersecurity, focused on Linux infrastructure, networking and self-hosted environments.

Since 2020, when I installed my first Linux distribution and built my first production systems from scratch, I have been continuously developing my knowledge and experience in infrastructure engineering.

Over the years, I have worked on legacy system migrations, the design and maintenance of Linux-based environments, the implementation of security and hardening measures, and the deployment of self-hosted services accessible over the Internet.

What started as an interest in homelabbing and systems administration gradually evolved into a deeper understanding of networking, infrastructure security and the technologies that power modern cloud environments.

Current focus

My current focus is on designing, deploying, securing and maintaining reliable and resilient infrastructure. I am particularly interested in Linux systems, network architecture, virtualization, self-hosting, infrastructure automation and cloud technologies.

I see infrastructure as the foundation on which digital services are built. That is why I consider security, availability, scalability and automation to be essential aspects of any infrastructure.

Learning and growth

I enjoy learning by building, experimenting, breaking things and understanding how everything works under the hood. I believe the best way to develop technical skills is by tackling real-world problems, researching and finding solutions independently.

My goal is to continue growing as aCloud Infrastructure Engineer, gaining hands-on experience through real-world projects and continuous technical learning.
