This profile is a workbench: Splunk administration, data quality tooling, Codex skills, finance experiments, embedded systems, retro CPU projects, and a pile of reference repos I keep close for building and learning.
| Area | What is inside | Good starting points |

- Making messy operational systems more observable and easier to repair.
- Building small tools that remove friction from daily development.
- Keeping old computers, chips, boards, and protocols understandable.
- Combining hardware projects with software automation.
- Using AI tools pragmatically: scripts, skills, MCP servers, and real workflows.
