About the Author
Gilbert Sanchez
PowerShell nerd, open source contributor, and accidental homelab architect
I maintain projects like psake, lead a team of engineers by day, and automate everything in sight by night — the house runs on Home Assistant and I have no regrets. I also care a lot about making tech more accessible and welcoming, especially for neurodiverse folks. If it can be scripted or made more human, it probably already has been.
