Many of us in IT have similar starts with our interests overlapping with our career goals. My one piece of advice is to be careful about work/life balance. I’ve done a lot of “work” stuff at home over the years without getting compensated for it. Use your homelab for your projects. The skills will transfer over, but let the work projects stay on work hardware.
