My Journey

I started my career as a Data Engineer at Wells Fargo, where I developed a deep understanding of data infrastructure, SQL systems, and ETL automation. That foundation proved invaluable as I transitioned into DevOps — seeing both the data and the platform layers gave me a unique perspective.

At Pearson Education, I embraced modern DevOps practices — leading Docker containerization initiatives, building CI/CD pipelines, and managing hybrid AWS infrastructure for one of the world's largest education technology companies.

Today at Andrews Distributing, I architect enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure across Azure and AWS, driving cloud-native adoption, enforcing DevSecOps practices, and mentoring the next generation of engineers.
