Hello! I’m Owen Rummage, a systems administrator and software enthusiast with a lifelong passion
for technology. I was born . Currently, I’m pursuing an
Associate of Applied Sciences in Computer Information Technology at Nashville State. I’ve been
fascinated by computers since I was 6 and have been a Linux user since I was 8, which sparked my
interest in open-source software and development. When I’m not studying or working on projects, I enjoy spending time doing homelab shenanigans,
Hi-Fi audio, car modifications and other things of that sort.. Thanks for stopping by my site,
and feel free to reach out if you’d like to chat about tech, open-source software, or anything
in between! I am known for a few things, I operate NixLabs (AS400655) an open-source organization that aids
in getting servers and resources to open-source projects all around the internet. In my free
time, I like to program and build networks. I mainly program in PHP, however I am also
proficient in Javascript, GoLang, and Python. I am extremely experienced with Cisco and Arista
networking equipment along with protocols such as BGP and OSPF. I have 32u of colocation to
operate me and my friend’s servers as part of NixLabs, this is where I run all of my services. I
have some cool stuf on this site, including a state of the art NFT you can go buy here. You can also go read my ramblings on my blog. I have worked at a few companies in the past doing various things from systems administration to
software engineering. Most of that can be found on my Linkedin, located here. Currently, I am employed at a small computer shop locally. My job mainly revolves around
fixing desktops and laptops, but occasionally we get an enterprise contracting job where I do
network installations or software deployment/configuration. I also do contracting on the side,
