# 👋 Hi there — I’m @thesabear
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
I’m a curious, self-taught technologist with a passion for breaking things, fixing them, and understanding *why* systems behave the way they do. What started as a hobby homelab project has grown into a full-on journey into DevOps, automation, infrastructure, and security.
|
||||
|
||||
My long-term goal is to build a career in IT—specifically in environments where learning never stops and innovation is part of the culture.
|
||||

## 👀 What I’m Exploring
|
||||
I spend a lot of time experimenting in my homelab, using it as a real-world playground to deepen my understanding of core IT concepts.
|
||||
Some of the areas I’m actively exploring include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Infrastructure automation and Infrastructure-as-Code
|
||||
- Network design, security, and service reliability
|
||||
- Containers, registries, and image hardening
|
||||
- Monitoring, observability, and resilient design patterns
|
||||
|
||||
Each project teaches me something new, and everything I learn pushes me further toward becoming a well-rounded IT/DevOps engineer.
|
||||

## 🌱 What I’m Learning Right Now
|
||||
I’m currently focused on:
|
||||
|
||||
- Building and maintaining secure Docker images
|
||||
- Running my own private registry
|
||||
- Using GitLab pipelines to automate image updates, security scanning, and deployments
|
||||
- Improving scripting skills—Python and Bash are next on my list
|
||||
|
||||
I enjoy understanding not just how something works, but how to automate it, secure it, and integrate it cleanly into a larger system.
|
||||

|
||||
## ⚡ Fun Fact
|
||||
I’m entirely self-taught. Every tool, trick, concept, and workflow in my repos is something I learned by doing—from reading docs to breaking my lab at 2 a.m. and fixing it again.
|
||||

## 📁 What You’ll Find in This Repository
|
||||
This repo serves as a showcase of the things I build and experiment with. Inside, you’ll find:
|
||||
|
||||
- A growing collection of Docker Compose files for various services I run
|
||||
- Infrastructure-as-Code projects designed to spin up my entire homelab from minimal, hardened ISO images
|
||||
- Configurations, scripts, and templates built around reproducibility, security, and operational simplicity
|
||||
|
||||
My goal is to create solutions that are not only functional, but thoughtfully designed—and to share what I learn along the way.
