Coast Guard hazmat / vessel-ops background → networking (CCNA in progress) + practical AI systems. I build small tools, document the work in public, and care about demos that actually run.
Field log: kitapplegate.github.io/Kit-bashing
| Project | What it is |
|---|---|
| Kit-bashing | Astro blog / field log — AI, networking, home lab, shipped via GitHub Actions → Pages |
| Drowned_Signal | Browser MUD with real networking puzzles (VLANs, MAC tables, /28 subnetting) — play |
| missing.Persons | R tidyverse wrangling of missing-persons case CSVs (notebooks in-repo) |
- Networking and home lab (CCNA track)
- Practical AI / agent workflows for documentation and ops handoffs
- Clear technical writing and shippable demos
GitHub is the best first stop. Open to Upwork / client work that needs someone who can bridge ops reality and software.
