About Tech Simpld

The Mission

I started Tech Simpld because I noticed a massive gap in the tech community: there simply aren't enough tutorials speaking directly to the hobbyist or the non-power user. Far too often, guides are written with the assumption that you already have years of IT experience under your belt.

My goal is to break down those barriers. I create step-by-step, easy-to-follow content that empowers everyday users to take control of their digital lives—without needing a computer science degree to do it.

My Background & Philosophy

I have worked professionally in the IT industry for over 20 years. Outside of the day job, I run my own Proxmox home lab as a playground to teach myself anything and everything that catches my interest.

At my core, I believe that your data belongs to you and no one else. Technology is an incredibly powerful tool, but it needs to be used in the correct ways to serve you, rather than the other way around. Self-hosting and privacy-first tools are a big part of that philosophy.

Beyond the Keyboard

When I'm not in front of a screen or tinkering with servers, you can usually find me working on my latest 3D printing project or out riding my motorcycle.

I'm also a massive fan of the Legend of Zelda series—in fact, it's actually how I met my wife!
