Systems administrator with a service mindset—pairing disciplined operations with modern tooling to keep regulated environments resilient, secure, and easy to support.

Professional Profile

I currently serve as the system administrator for a regional insurance carrier. I studied Management Information Systems at the University of Virginia's College at Wise. I bring a service-oriented mindset to IT operations, focusing on automation, security, and user enablement. I have experience developing and deploying custom business solutions using a varierty of tools and platforms, including Microsoft 365, Cloudflare, AWS, and various scripting languages. I value collaboration and continuous learning, always seeking to improve processes and deliver exceptional support to end-users.

Outside of work, I enjoy playing guitar, going on joyriding adventures, and exploring new technologies. Some of the projects I've built in my free time are available here on my website, and I'd appreciate it if you checked them out. Anything posted on this site is open source, and you can view the code by visiting my GitHub profile. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect or discuss potential opportunities!
