About Us
We are a group of home lab enthusiast trying to help other fellow enthusiast in setting up their very own home lab. We take privacy very seriously and are committed to safeguarding your data from being leaked to the cloud. We, therefore, specialize in setting up local-only home labs.

Nathan‘s the kind of guy who’ll spend three hours helping you debug your network config and act like it was nothing. A self-taught sysadmin by night, he’s been running homelabs since before it was cool — back when “home server” meant a loud tower in the bedroom closet. These days his rack is tidy, his glasses are always slightly smudged, and his Discord DMs are perpetually open. If you’ve ever lurked a homelab subreddit and found a genuinely helpful comment, there’s a decent chance it was him.
Yuliana didn’t come from a tech background; she built one, brick by brick, starting with a single Raspberry Pi on a kitchen counter. That journey from complete beginner to running a fully self-hosted home environment is exactly why she’s here. She believes privacy is a right, and not a privilege. And she’s passionate about making sure no one gets left behind just because the learning curve feels steep. If you have ever been too afraid to ask a ‘dumb question,’ Yuliana is who you come to first.
Chris will absolutely void your warranty. And Proudly. This is a man who has recovered from three failed drives, two corrupted boot sectors, and one very regrettable experiment with a UPS during a thunderstorm. He would gladly walk you through every single disaster with a grin. He’s the guy who has seven Proxmox nodes ‘just to test something’ and somehow makes it all work. Forget the polished setup, Chris is about learning by doing, breaking things safely, and building something genuinely cool in the process.
Nicholas doesn’t care what brand it is. He doesn’t care if it’s pretty. He cares if it works, if it’s documented, and if it’ll still be running six months from now without you touching it. A firm believer in doing things once and doing them right, he’s the one who will politely but firmly tell you that your backup strategy is not actually a backup strategy. Equal parts sysadmin and realist, Nicholas keeps the group honest, and keeps everyone’s setups from quietly falling apart.
