Hi, my name is

Simone.

And they say I build beautiful things.

I’m driven by this quote ‘Sometimes it is the people no one can imagine anything of, who do the things no one can imagine.’ said by our beloved Alan Mathison Turing.

Aulabook
Aulabook stands as an inventive laboratory booking system born out of a crucial need within my school community to efficiently manage laboratory usage. Developed to address this necessity, Aulabook not only revolutionizes booking processes in my school but also serves as a testament to my innovative prowess. Its creation earned me the 2nd place at the GFMarilli "Hackersgen" contest, hosted by Sorint.lab in October 2023.

Homelab
Proxmox Linux Windows Server Docker Kubernetes
Homelab
At the age of 14, I embarked on the journey of self-hosting my own services. By the time I turned 16, I purchased my inaugural server, driven by the vision of providing privacy-oriented, free, and open-source software alternatives to my family. Today, with three servers under my belt, I've achieved complete independence from reliance on Google and Microsoft online services.

Experience

IT Administrator - Consultorio La Famiglia
2022 - present
As an IT Administrator for a non-profit organization, I manage the entire technology infrastructure, ensuring smooth operations across multiple platforms. I oversee the PC fleet using Microsoft Intune, providing comprehensive support for daily tasks through both Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace collaboration tools. In addition to managing the network and hardware, I am responsible for all tech-related aspects, from system configuration to troubleshooting. I successfully implemented and configured Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Intune, and Active Directory from scratch, ensuring seamless integration, centralized management, and optimal performance for the organization. This setup has streamlined operations and enhanced overall efficiency across the organization’s technology environment.
