I run IT solo for a 100+ employee HIPAA-regulated healthcare organization — and I automate everything that gets done twice. M365 · Entra ID · Windows Server · PowerShell · Power Platform · Docker.
Numbers first — the case studies below show how.
Real systems, running in production. Sanitized source and full write-ups on GitHub.
Manual account creation and hand-managed security groups don't survive 85% headcount growth — every typo became a day-one access problem.
Annual evaluations lived on paper and memory — missed anniversaries, wrong forms, no audit trail.

10 Docker services, 9 drives, VPN-isolated downloads — then Windows dynamic disks failed and drive letters reshuffled under the whole stack.
Awareness training needs evidence, and commercial phishing-sim platforms are overkill for a 100-person org.

I'm the sole IT operation for a HIPAA-regulated healthcare organization in New Jersey — escalation support, identity, infrastructure, security, and everything between, across multiple locations.

Off hours I run the labs above on hardware I built myself, write n8n pipelines, and keep a Letterboxd watchlist long enough to need its own automation.
