Cloud infrastructure, Linux systems and geospatial data.
I build things where infrastructure meets maps: cloud environments, Linux systems, automation, and geospatial tools for the Caribbean. Projects appear below as they ship, some serious, some just for fun, each with its code and a write-up.
Projects
Finished work only. Each project ships as a public repo with the code, an architecture diagram and a write-up of what broke.
GIS lab: seismic activity around Puerto Rico
connecting to USGSLive earthquake data from the USGS, pulled as GeoJSON in your browser, projected onto Natural Earth coastlines with optional NASA satellite imagery underneath, and analysed on the spot. Puerto Rico sits on an active plate boundary, so there’s always something to map.

Flight: from racing gates to mapping grids
I learned to fly FPV in simulators before I owned a quad, and I’m working toward racing in Puerto Rico and coaching new pilots. The same stick skills carry over to drone mapping, where flying turns into GIS data.

Racing teaches fast decisions with incomplete information. Mapping teaches patience: planned grids, overlap, ground control. I want both.
Code
GitHubPublic repositories, pulled live from GitHub. Each project gets its own repo with infrastructure code, diagrams and a write-up.
Chess
Chess.com, LichessRapid and daily games on Chess.com, puzzles on both sites, and every game reviewed afterwards. It’s the same loop as troubleshooting: form a hypothesis, test it, and find out exactly where it went wrong.
