Financial Engineer / Manager

As Financial Engineer and then Manager, I worked on Counterparty Credit Risk (CCR) and Market Data projects. I led teams, managed projects, and developed new features on client applications.

HomeLab

2020 - Present

I started my HomeLab by chance with a Raspberry Pi and the almighty Pi-Hole, and now I'm totally down the rabbit hole. It's addictive! I've since expanded to managing a Proxmox node, complete with a dedicated pfSense virtual machine serving as my home firewall. The complexity keeps growing, but so does the excitement!
