About Me

DevOps Engineer with deep infrastructure and reliability experience supporting the US Department of Energy (Bonneville Power Administration). Nine years in DevOps across hybrid cloud, backed by two decades in enterprise infrastructure. Builds and operates CI/CD pipelines, automation, and Kubernetes platforms; leads cloud migrations from assessment through cutover; and designs disaster recovery that holds up under audit and under load. Works across cloud IaaS and PaaS, identity and access architecture, SIEM implementation and tuning, and infrastructure automation, with system hardening to DISA STIGs and cloud workloads in FedRAMP- authorized environments. Comfortable in regulated, high-availability environments where change control is strict and downtime carries real consequences.

I am also a member of the InfraGard National Members Alliance, an association of the FBI with private individuals invested in protecting U.S. critical infrastructure
