A personal lab for exploring cloud infrastructure, automation, and AI systems — learning by building.
What I Work On
Focus Areas
Four interconnected domains explored through hands-on building and continuous iteration.
Cloud Systems
Designing and managing infrastructure across cloud providers — from networking and compute to storage, deployment strategies, and building systems that stay reliable under pressure.
Automation
Building pipelines and tooling that remove friction. CI/CD, infrastructure as code, scripting, and turning manual processes into repeatable, dependable workflows.
AI Systems
Exploring applied AI beyond the hype — agent frameworks, LLM integrations, and practical tooling that augments engineering workflows and decision-making.
Experiments
A playground for ideas. Rapid prototypes, lab environments, and exploratory builds — testing hypotheses, breaking things, and learning through hands-on creation.
CrazyHub
Featured ProjectSelf-hosted cloud resource monitoring dashboard with a plug-and-play provider architecture. Aggregate and monitor resources across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Cloudflare from a single unified dashboard — deployed as a single Docker container with zero external dependencies.
Multi-Cloud
AWS, Azure, GCP, Cloudflare in one view
Encrypted Storage
AES-256-GCM credential encryption at rest
Single Container
One docker run, SQLite embedded, no external DB
