I work full time in the IT space while taking college classes in the evenings. In addition to that, I am a husband and a father.

In my basement, I have a home lab that started with raspberry pi’s and evolved to a rack server running VMWare with Ubiquity network router, switch, and hotspot.

I have an interest in DevOps efficiencies, Web Hosting, Cloud, Virtualization, Security, Machine Learning, Analytics, and Security.

I am seeking better methods to invoke a CI/CD pipe lines leveraging version control (GIT) and infrastructure as code. I started with a large docker VM using GIT with Gitlab and started exploring “CI/CD workers” until I discovered Rancher which was suggested by a colleague.
