IT professional building robust cloud and hybrid infrastructure. M365 & Azure-focused, with a homelab that never sleeps.
I'm an IT professional from Conroe, TX with a background spanning Microsoft, enterprise endpoint support, and hands-on homelab infrastructure. I specialize in Microsoft 365 administration and cloud-adjacent environments, with a deep love for building things that actually work.
Currently pursuing AZ-104 (Azure Administrator) certification and targeting remote or hybrid SysAdmin and M365 roles. When I'm not managing tenants, I'm running Proxmox, tuning OPNsense, or optimizing something that didn't ask to be optimized.
I also run Prism Pixel, a personal tech concierge service for individuals and small businesses in the Houston area. And yes — I have a TikTok about hybrid cars and IT. Long story.
Production-grade home lab running multiple VMs including an OPNsense router/firewall, Docker host, and various self-hosted services. VLAN segmentation and Suricata IDS configured for network security.
Self-hosted Google Photos replacement with a 920GB library migrated from a Proxmox VM disk image. Configured with RTX 2070 Super GPU acceleration and remote access via Tailscale.
Network-wide ad filtering via Unbound DNS, remote access from anywhere via Tailscale, and split-tunnel routing. Enables full homelab access securely without exposing ports.
Enabled SMB3 Multichannel on a UGREEN NAS to push transfer speeds from ~18 MB/s to ~200 MB/s — over 10x improvement. Centralized storage for homelab VMs and media.
High-touch personal tech support service for individuals and small businesses in Conroe/Houston. Covers device setup, network configuration, and ongoing IT guidance for non-technical clients.
Self-hosted Minecraft server running as a Docker container, accessible at mc.jerrygarcia.dev via SRV record. Because a homelab without a game server is just a server room.
Open to remote or hybrid M365, SysAdmin, and Azure-focused roles. Also happy to chat homelab, cars, or anything in between.
