About
Engineering repeatable, auditable infrastructure & automation.
I make infrastructure and automation repeatable, auditable, and safer for engineering teams. My career started in enterprise Cisco UC at Cisco TAC and grew into modern platform engineering — Terraform and Ansible at scale, Kubernetes baselines, CI/CD with OIDC/workload identity, observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Datadog), and gated production deploys across any cloud, on-prem, or hybrid. I keep scope tight, document what I build, and make things easier for the next engineer who has to touch them.
