👋 Hey, I’m Joe

Paramedic by day. Homelab wrangler by night.
My playground? TrueNAS running on trusty Dell PowerEdge gear, tied together with Proxmox, Docker, and a healthy obsession with ZFS.

I co-founded DevForge Collectives, where we cook up everything from AI assistants and automation tools to game servers and social schedulers. Basically, if it’s nerdy, chaotic, and fun — I’m in.

⚡ What I Do

• Keep my TrueNAS pools humming and data safe.
• Build custom FiveM RP servers with ESX + ox_lib magic.
• Bake epic sourdough loaves (yes, really).
• Referee high school football Friday nights under the lights.
• Fly drones for Zero-G Imaging when I want a bird’s-eye view.

🚀 Why I’m Here

To share, learn, and trade war stories about storage setups, replication tricks, and how to squeeze every last drop of performance out of our homelabs. If you’ve ever thought, “Should I snapshot this?” — the answer is always yes.
