A personal lab built to the same standard as production: identity, edge, containers, storage, and automation, wired together and actually monitored.
Secondary resolver takes over within seconds of a health check failure, with alerting wired straight into the monitoring stack.
PowerShell scripts that talk to the Synology API, confirm each snapshot restores cleanly, and log the result before anyone has to ask.
Cloudflare Tunnel plus access policies replaced a legacy VPN, cutting client-side setup for every new device to zero.
I design, build, and keep running the systems that businesses can't afford to have go down — identity, endpoints, networking, and now increasingly cloud and edge, all in one hybrid picture instead of siloed pieces.
Day to day that means Azure AD / Entra ID and hybrid identity, Intune-managed endpoints, Active Directory and Windows Server, and the automation (PowerShell, Infrastructure as Code) that keeps all of it consistent instead of hand-built. This lab is where I extend that into AWS, Cloudflare Zero Trust, Docker, and self-hosted observability — the same discipline applied to a stack I fully own end to end.
