Active personal work — shipping, running, and evolving.
A cozy idle/clicker mobile game where a crew of adorable puppies digs up bones. Tap to earn, hire more pups, collect 17 breeds, and unlock dig sites — while prestige, quests, achievements, and friends leaderboards keep the bone empire growing even when you're away.
Niag Siege — a tower defense set in the World of Talie, built around the night the elven city of Niag fell. You cannot save the city; you decide how many of its people are outside the walls when it does. Four acts overland, six lines of defense, and an endless Last Stand once the campaign is done.
A fully domain-joined home infrastructure running under the DTPC.US Active Directory domain, spanning multiple physical hosts and services. What began as a single spare machine has grown continuously over more than two decades into a fully managed private network.
Networking was originally handled by a custom pfSense router build before migrating to a full Ubiquiti UniFi stack for improved manageability and performance. Every device in the home is joined to the DTPC.US domain, providing centralized authentication and management.
A service that watches a Prusa CORE One and streams it to YouTube on its own — opening the camera when a print starts, compositing a live telemetry overlay over the video, and stopping when the print ends. Every finished print is also uploaded as a timelapse.
It runs unattended on a NUC. The interesting part was a five-week hunt for a stream that kept collapsing to single-digit frame rates, which turned out to be the pipeline backpressuring its own camera.
A C# WinForms application for syncing remote VPS downloads to local NAS storage for backup and archiving. What started as a simple FTP sync utility has evolved through two major versions — first adopting SFTP via Renci SSH.NET, then migrating to WinSCP for improved reliability and features.
A locally hosted AI environment running entirely on a personal Windows 11 development machine, powered by an NVIDIA RTX 4080. Set up and explored both large language models and image generation without relying on cloud services.
Primary motivation was hands-on learning and exploration of self-hosted AI tooling as the space rapidly evolves. All inference runs locally with no external API dependencies.
A fantasy series — three books, one world. Book One, Shadow of Death, follows an orphan named Roscoe Kellen who leaves home on the strength of a dream and learns what it costs to answer a calling.
The series lives at the World of Talie teaser site, and you can hear the world through Songs of Talie on YouTube.
Rebuilt from a legacy PHP single-page application to a static Astro site with a modern dark theme, responsive layout, and clean URL structure.
