in permanent beta: learning, improving, evolving
Welcome to My Digital Space
Hey there! I'm Max — an economist with a lifelong passion for technology, hands-on problem solving, and continuous learning. Long before it became part of my professional toolkit, I was exploring code, building home servers, and automating anything I could. This site is where I share personal projects, ideas, and experiments — always in permanent beta.
Areas of Interest & Projects
🖥️ Homelab & Infrastructure
Designing and running a personal server environment with Proxmox, Docker, NAS, and self-hosted services — balancing performance, privacy, and fun.
🤖 AI & Machine Learning
Exploring applied AI and ML through side projects — from automating product content to early warning systems and beyond.
👨💻 Software Development
Building tools and automations with a focus on clean, maintainable code — mostly Python, TypeScript, and web technologies.
🔧 DevOps & Automation
Experimenting with CI/CD, containerization, and infrastructure as code to simplify complex workflows and learn by doing.
