This is my digital tent.

I camp here.

I’m Logan VanDyke, a systems architect, lifelong learner, and someone who believes in bringing order to chaos — both digitally and spiritually. This site is a curated space for reflection, growth, and exploring the intersection of technology, faith, and life purpose.

About Me

Where purpose meets process.

I’m Logan VanDyke, a systems architect who believes good infrastructure and good intentions should go hand in hand. I’ve led enterprise-scale projects, built more home lab setups than I care to admit, and helped nonprofits and churches embrace tech with clarity and care.

This site is a digital journal of sorts. It’s where I document what I’ve learned, reflect on the tools that have shaped me, and share thoughts from the intersection of technology, faith, and calling. It’s not here to sell anything. Just to stay rooted, keep growing, and maybe help someone else along the way.
