With a passion for optimizing systems and implementing robust solutions, I specialize in AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, and Python. My journey began at Belmont University, where I majored in Computer Science and minored in Entrepreneurship, blending technical expertise with innovative thinking. When I'm not enhancing system reliability, you can find me immersed in hydroponic gardening, playing tennis, traveling, or exploring new culinary delights.
Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with dynamic teams at Groups360 and Built Technologies. At Groups360, I overhauled DataDog implementations and improved incident response times by 50%. At Built Technologies, I implemented monitoring solutions that reduced incident response time by 75% and streamlined testing processes to enhance development efficiency. My approach centers around continuous improvement, collaboration, and delivering high-quality solutions.
I'm passionate about open-source and continuously engage in projects that push the boundaries of technology. Some of my notable projects include developing a full-stack authentication platform, creating Terraform modules for AWS EKS cluster management, and automating repository creation processes. These projects showcase my technical skills and commitment to innovation and efficiency.
My dedication to excellence has been recognized through awards such as the Built Onward Award at Built Technologies, given to less than 10% of team members for exceptional work ethic and outstanding results. At Belmont University, I was honored with the Stephen Campbell Math & Computer Science Award and consistently made the Dean's List. These accolades reflect my commitment to both professional and academic excellence.
I'm always eager to connect with like-minded professionals and explore new opportunities.
