Building infrastructure that scales, securing systems that matter, and bridging the gap between business strategy and cloud execution.
I wrote my first lines of code in 9th grade, then spent the next decade in the trenches of high volume sales and operations — managing territories, moving product, and learning how businesses actually run from the inside out.
But I never stopped watching tech evolve. The deeper I dug into how enterprises defend their infrastructure and how brutally expensive on premise data centers really are, the more obvious the path became. Cloud wasn't just the future — it was already here, and I needed to be building in it.
So I made the jump.
I'm not pivoting into tech to write apps. I'm learning to code so I can build the systems (Cloud Engineering), protect and automate them (SRE), and design the strategy behind them (Cloud Architecture). The code is a tool. The infrastructure is the product.
What makes me different? I've spent years reading rooms, closing deals, and managing complex logistics under pressure. Now I pair that with cloud architecture, security fundamentals, and automation — so I can talk to the C-suite and ship the Terraform.
Founder & Lead Developer · Private Repo
A RegTech compliance platform for the valet trash industry, built to automate dispute defense, enforce service documentation, and give property managers real time compliance visibility.
What it proves: Full stack architecture decisions on a real business problem — relational database design with complex foreign key relationships, agentic AI pipelines for automated compliance document generation, and a human in the loop review system that keeps operators in control. The code is closed source, but the architecture is the point: I built a production system end to end, from schema design to dashboard.

Automated Log Ingestion Pipeline
A serverless log automation pipeline that captures RHEL system logs and archives them to S3 with proper lifecycle policies. Built to demonstrate real world cloud ops workflows — the kind of infrastructure that keeps audit teams happy and storage costs low.

Infrastructure-as-Code Lab
A Terraform driven infrastructure project designed to mirror enterprise compliance environments. Doubles as R&D for Trash Guard's future cloud native backend — because the best way to learn IaC is to build something that actually matters.

I have two kids watching me build this. Every cert, every late night debug session, every architecture diagram scribbled at 2am. The sales career taught me how to compete. The cloud pivot is teaching me how to build things that last.
