02 / ABOUT ME
Welcome. I’m Noe.
I’m an Advancement Data Specialist at Tarleton State University with an interest in how processes and technology can make everyday work clearer and more effective. This site has been a labor of love - bringing together my professional background, personal projects, and creative interests into one deliverable.
I’m especially interested in agentic orchestration, process improvement, automation, and AI: the combination of people and intelligent tools working together to build and deliver more useful systems.
Beyond the content, this website is self-hosted and maintained on a server within my home network. This build is the sum of research in the topics of networking, frontend and backend architectures, security and access management, and infrastructure automation. This website will continue to evolve and develop alongside my understanding of these layers.
Interested in collaborating? Let's connect ↗.
