Empowering others through code, infrastructure, and open-source tools
Hi, I’m Kevin—a systems administrator and coding instructor based in Massachusetts with 5+ years of hands-on experience in Linux system management, Java development, and tech education. I specialize in solving real-world problems: whether that's maintaining Minecraft servers for hundreds of users, teaching the next generation of coders, or building open-source tools that make tech more inclusive.
