Exploring infrastructure, IT, and cloud opportunitiesKevin Townson / Software Engineer
From software to the systems behind it.
I’m a Houston-based software engineer expanding into cloud infrastructure, Linux, networking, and data center technology. I build labs to understand how systems run, fail, and recover.
Personal learning environments where I configure systems, monitor services, troubleshoot failures, and document what I learn. These labs are not production systems or professional cloud experience.
