About Me

Hey I'm Gio! I run a YouTube channel called Smart Home Makers and run a blog too.
I'm a Software Engineer with a passion for smart home tech.
I have been living in a smart home for about 5 years. At one point I had more than 20 Smart Apps on my phone, I since decided to control my smart home with Home Assistant and help people learn this powerful platform.
When I was getting started with Home Assistant I struggled to get everything working, but now I feel the need to pass on this knowledge and get more and more people using Home Assistant as their home automation platform.
I recently decided to create a video course series to help more people out in a more structured way!
