Hello, I'm Jessica P Velasco
(& this is my story)
sysadmin & storyteller
My Story (So Far)
I believe that everyone has stories worth telling, including the ones that happen over morning coffee or during quiet walks in the rain. This journal started as a way to capture those fleeting moments that make life beautiful.
By day, I'm a systems administrator managing infrastructure and solving complex technical challenges. By evening, I'm usually diving into tech books, exploring new tools, or sharing stories about both my professional journey and personal experiences.
What you'll find here are authentic stories from both my technical career and personal life— including my experiences living with cleft lip and palate, navigating the tech industry, and finding strength in everyday challenges. Real experiences, honest reflections, and the lessons learned along the way.
I Believe In...
- • Infrastructure as code and automation
- • Learning from both successes and failures
- • The power of authentic storytelling
- • Building resilient systems and teams
- • Embracing challenges as growth opportunities
