Software Builder & Hardware Tech

About Me

Started out with a tablet — loved playing Android games, then started poking around in the settings, watching tech videos. Got genuinely curious. My family had this one old computer running Windows 7. That thing was slow, it was old, but it still ran and still got everything done. Something about that was just amazing to me.

That curiosity never stopped. Self-taught across the board — unlocking Android phones, getting into locked Windows machines people thought were gone for good, building PCs, bringing slow machines back to life. Software is really where it all connects for me. If it's tech, I can figure it out.

The Nexus AI Terminal started as a side project just to see what I could actually do with AI. It grew into something real. Everything on this site — the three games, the live infrastructure monitor, the mod menu hidden behind a keyboard code — AI-assisted, but designed, directed, and maintained by me. Pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. No frameworks.

Projects

Proxmox Home Lab

ACTIVE

Running Proxmox at home with a full stack on it — AdGuard for DNS-level ad blocking (saves more battery than you'd think), WireGuard VPN, Uptime Kuma, Docker, Nginx Proxy Manager, Home Assistant, and OpenMediaVault. Still adding things.

Proxmox VE Docker AdGuard Linux

Nexus AI Terminal

ONGOING

Built this just to see how far I could take AI. It grew. Custom terminal interface, multiple AI modes, live system stats, games built right into it. Status above shows whether it's online, offline, or being worked on.

PC Builds & Recovery

Locked Windows machine, won't boot, unbearably slow — bring it to me. Been doing this long enough that pretty much nothing surprises me anymore. Full builds too, from scratch.

Device Repair & Recovery

MacBooks, Windows PCs, iPhones, Android phones, tablets — pretty much anything. Component-level board work, liquid damage cleanup, battery and screen replacements, locked-device unlocks (Android + Windows), full OS recovery without losing data, and software cleanup on slow machines. Daily driving multiple platforms keeps the knowledge current. If it's a device and it's broken, bring it.

Tech Tip of the Day

When a phone won't charge, try a different cable first. It's the cable 70% of the time.
