About

Welcome to Arch Cloud Labs!

My name is Jared, and this site serves as a living technical portfolio of my side projects. Posts range from reverse engineering, CVE recreation, kernel debugging, homelab infrastructure, hardware hacking and everything in-between. Each blog post is written with the intent of being a reproducible artifacts with the hopes to inspire others to document their projects, while also conveying technical capability to future employers.

I’m publishing a bit slower now as I’m currently working on my Doctorate at Johns Hopkins University.

For the latest projects head over here.

All work is conducted in the author’s personal capacity and does not reflect the views of any employer.
