Faith & Life

Welcome to the new site

A quick note on why I built this site, what to expect, and the stack behind it.

After years of working on other people’s infrastructure, I finally put a little time into my own corner of the web. This is it.

Why a personal site

I wanted a quiet, fast place to keep notes — on networking and hosting, on the AI tools I’m experimenting with, and on the cars and machines I enjoy tinkering with. Nothing flashy. Just a place that’s mine, that I fully control, running on infrastructure I understand.

What to expect

I’ll write in a few areas:

  • Engineering — networking, datacenter, cloud / VPS / hosting, DevOps.
  • AI & Tools — notes and experiments.
  • Passion — cars, machines, and the craft of building things.
  • Faith & Life — short reflections and the projects I’ve walked alongside.

There’s also a Curated section in the works — short, summary-translated digests of interesting articles, always linking back to the original source.

The stack

This site is built with Astro for a static, near-zero-JS output, styled with Tailwind CSS, and hosted on my own VPS at 123Host behind Nginx and Cloudflare. Content lives in Markdown, versioned in Git — simple, durable, and fast.

Thanks for stopping by.
