Loren Lisk

Operational Engineer, DevOps, Coder & Passionate Technologist

Hello World!

I'm Loren Lisk also known as Liskl, and I Create.

I can currently be found helping organizations bridge the gap between vision and technical implementation. I specialize in cloud computing solutions architecture and security, with a focus in containers and kubernetes.

I've been known to dabble in all sorts of hobbies and skilled projects which include things like embedded systems, solar power engineering, programming, as well as Homelabbing.

Along time ago I lead development on LisklCraftLisklcraft, a private Minecraft Server hosted in a Homelab... I helped build the Neverwinter Nights eXtender nwnx With Papillon (Ingmar Stieger) during the years of 2003-2005. Here is the Server rack that runs most things I work on. These days you can find me playing or working on datacenter liskl as well as learning about everything linux, kubernetes and containers. I work from home, and live in the amazing city of Ormond Beach, Florida. I'm currently linked in to many different people for many different reasons.

You can send me an email if you like..
