Hello there!
I decided to create this site in 2025 when I was in the process of studying for my CISSP exam. I wanted something to look forward to after my exam, so I thought building a site to share IT content would be fun project.
I have been a beneficiary of many other writers IT content, and figured this would be a good medium for writing content on my own. So much of the work I do is reading and researching so that I can understand how things work in order to make “educated clicks”. I hope that this site will provide a medium to share what I learn with others.
I also personally find that writing is great for processing my thoughts. Going through the process of untangling the spaghetti mess of ideas, thoughts, and feelings swirling around my head into coherent writing is extremely helpful. It helps me sort things out, make decisions, and retain what I’ve learned, even if I never refer back to it.
It can be easy to get bogged down in the daily issues and frustrations that crop up. I find that when I am consistently working on personal growth and learning, as well as improving the systems I work on, I find much more enjoyment out of my work and life as a whole.
As a wise sysadmin once said “IT is not building a barn. It’s pruning a bonsai tree and trying to shape it over time.”
