Who I Am
- My name is Ethan Paul. I am currently an engineering student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute studying Mechanical Engineering. I am an avid outdoorsman, former Boy Scout, and can make a mean omlette (if I do say so myself). I'm also a Type 1 Diabetic, and working on joining the DIY Pancreas and OpenOmni projects. + My name is Ethan Paul, and I am an engineering student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute studying Mechanical Engineering.

What I Do
- Lots of things! I work at WPI Network Operations and spent three years as an intern for the SolidWorks Corporation. I also enjoy programming, fixing my aging car, hiking, and squeezing extra years of life out of old technology. + I do lots of things! I work at WPI Network Operations and spent three years as an intern for the SolidWorks Corporation. I also enjoy programming, fixing my aging car, urban and trail hiking, and squeezing extra life out of decrepit technology.
My Network
- The ENPaul Network (ENPN) is a homelab environment designed, created, and maintained by/for myself. To be clear: the things I do with my servers are completely unnecessary and wholly ridiculous. I do them anyway because they're fun! See the Network Section to learn more. + The ENPaul Network is a homelab environment designed, created, and maintained by me.
