Look like it's time for me to introduce myself
About Me
Hi there! My real name is Punyapat, but I use Cinnamon Pyro as my online pseudonym. I am 22 years old. I am a homelab enthusiast with a degree in Computer Engineering. My interest in Servers, Networking, and Cyber Security started back in 2019 when I decided to build my first small homelab out of curiosity. After I started majoring in Computer Engineering, it turned out that I was also interested in hardware.
As for my hobbies, besides computer-related hobbies, I enjoy gardening, cooking, playing piano, learning new stuff, drawing, designing, and teaching.

Let's see what I've made
Projects
Personal Portfolio Website (This Website)
December 2023
Personal Project
In this project, I decided to redesign and rewrite my portfolio website using NextJS, Tailwind CSS, and other libraries. I deployed my old portfolio website back in May 2023, when my website was still purely HTML and CSS. And that made me feel like I should update and redesign the portfolio to my own style. My online friends helped me with some of the design and color selection.
2 Channels Digital Oscilloscope using FPGA
October 2023
University Mini-Project
In this project, I've built a two channels digital oscilloscope using CycloneV FPGA on a terasIC DE0-CV board featuring a VGA Output at a resolution of 640x480 @ 60Hz, a max data sampling rate of 109.89 kHz for single channel sampling and 54.945 kHz for dual channel sampling, and a UART terminal to control and configure the FPGA oscilloscope from a PC or laptop.
Informative Website featuring an Authentication System using PHP
December 2020
Commissioned/Requested Project
I was requested to build an informative website featuring an authentication system. I used PHP and Bootstrap (CSS Framework) to build the website. This project took me ten days to design, build, test, and deploy.
Project Started on 15th December 2020
Project Finalized on 25th December 2020
Building and Managing Homelab Infrastructure
Since October 2019
Long-term Personal Project
I started this project back in October 2019 with the intention of re-purposing an old PC. After I realized that I was interested in building a homelab, I decided to try improving my lab with better components and try more stuff with my lab. In late 2020, I decided to improve my network infrastructure using pfSense and try more experiments with the network infrastructure. That is where my homelab advances at a higher rate. This homelab project made me decide to apply for a Computer Engineering major during university admission in December 2019.
