about me ↓

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with 13+ years shipping production software across web, mobile, cloud, and AI. My core stack: .NET / C#, Node.js, MS SQL Server, and growing day-to-day work in Google Cloud — alongside PowerShell, SFTP, and Okta for the operational glue.

I've architected secure, scalable systems for the government (Nevada NCCIS, Nebraska Crime Commission) and healthcare (Mayo Clinic) sectors, and I publish iOS apps on the side for the joy of shipping.

Lately I'm obsessed with agentic AI — real workflows on OpenAI, Claude, and Azure Cognitive Services, plus running local LLMs (Llama, DeepSeek) on Raspberry Pi for offline experiments.
