Hi there! I’m a senior technical leader with a love for solving tough problems and building meaningful solutions. I’ve been fortunate to work on exciting projects that bring technology to life in ways that truly make a difference.
When I’m not in front of a screen, I’m a dad first — spending time with my family is one of my greatest joys. And when it’s time to unplug and clear my head, I take to the skies in my Cessna 150. There’s nothing quite like the perspective and freedom that flying brings — it’s my happy place away from the keyboard.
If any of this resonates with you — whether you share a passion for AI, aviation, or just good conversation — I’d love to connect.
