// hello, world
Bridging technology and business.
An IT Engineer with over two decades in enterprise and industrial technology. I work at the intersection of business process and technical architecture — identifying where gaps create friction, designing solutions that scale, and making sure the technology an organization adopts is something it can actually sustain and support.
My background started in broadcast production and television, which gave me an early appreciation for systems thinking and the human side of communication. That combination — technical depth with business context — has shaped how I approach every problem since. I mentor engineers, lead projects, and stay close enough to emerging trends to bring useful signal back to the teams I work with.
Where I've Worked
Present
Identify technical gaps in business processes and design and implement solutions at scale. Evaluate emerging technology and determine what's worth adopting — balancing best-of-breed with financial viability and team supportability. Mentor engineers and lead cross-functional projects.

Beyond the Terminal
Music is non-negotiable — either playing it or listening to it. Not background noise. It's the constant that runs underneath everything else.
Always on, always playing. The constant that runs underneath everything else.
Skills-based time in the woods. Self-reliant, disconnected, intentional.
Low and slow is a philosophy. Takes the craft seriously — and the competition too.
On the water when he can be. Open air, no notifications.
A consistent outlet. Competitive enough to care about the score.
