Building and breaking networks. Writing about real-world infrastructure and defense.

I run Directsales PTY, a cybersecurity and IT infrastructure company based in Panama. 14+ years working with networks, firewalls, and endpoint security across Panama, LATAM, and the US. I write about what I actually deploy — Zero Trust setups, VPN architecture, home lab experiments, and lessons learned from breaking things before they break in production.
