These are selected personal projects and areas I actively work on and document outside of my professional role.
CrumpNet#
CrumpNet is my personal technology site for homelab projects, infrastructure notes, and practical IT documentation. It serves as a companion to this site with detailed write-ups of the projects below.
Homelab Infrastructure#
A personal lab environment that mirrors and extends concepts from my professional work, including:
- Active Directory domain with multiple sites and OUs
- Hyper-V and Linux server virtualization
- Docker-hosted services and self-hosted applications
- Monitoring, alerting, and log collection
- Backup and recovery testing
- Network segmentation and VLAN design
PKI Lab#
A two-tier Microsoft certificate authority built to understand certificate services in depth — covering offline root CA design, CRL publishing, certificate templates, and internal trust chain management. Directly relevant to the PKI work I handle professionally.
Monitoring and Logging#
Monitoring and visibility implementations using Zabbix for infrastructure health and Wazuh for security event collection across Windows, Linux, and network devices.
Documentation#
An ongoing effort to keep technical notes, procedures, and infrastructure decisions organized and useful over time. Published at CrumpNet.
