--- date: 2023-08-07T08:58:15+02:00 --- Hi, my name is `Laura Kalb` and I (literally) do things on the internet. ## About me I'm a network engineer, with a pretty mixed technical background. I started my career in software development, and then moved on to be a sysadmin with main emphasis on linux environments. Afterwards, I was a mix of network engineer and site reliability engineer. Now I'm responsible for the network infrastructure at a big datacenter provider. Currently I'm primarily working on network automation and our internal network infrastructure, and I'm playing a lot with the Golang programming language =). ## Some nice stuff A list of **tools**, **projects** and **fun stuff** that I already have worked on or that I want to work on in the future. - [A list of awesome stuff curated by me!](/interesting-stuff) - building my own IPAM with [Go](https://go.dev/).
