The Person Behind
the Code

Senior Site Reliability Engineer at Microsoft with a decade of experience spanning offensive cyber operations, AI/ML development, and advanced software engineering. My technical journey began in 2014, evolving from foundational programming to architecting enterprise-scale reliability solutions and developing sophisticated AI-driven infrastructure.

Previously recognized at Parsons Corporation with both the Game Changer (2023) and Standing Ovation (2024) awards for pioneering AI/ML innovations and cyber program expansion. My work has focused on pushing the boundaries of what's possible in infrastructure automation and system reliability.

With bachelor's degrees in Computer Science, Mathematics, and Physics from George Mason University, I bring a multidisciplinary approach to solving complex technical challenges. My competitive spirit has led to notable achievements in international cybersecurity competitions, including placing in the top 4% globally at Cyber Apocalypse 2021 (437th out of 12,000+ teams).

"The beautiful thing about building stuff is that you put a piece of yourself, your story, your individualistic perspective into something for the world."
