About

I am a technical operator, builder, and founder with experience across gaming systems, infrastructure, compliance-driven operations, and a growing focus on cybersecurity.

My background centers on building and running systems that work in the field—not just in theory. I have developed gaming platforms for charitable organizations and sweepstakes, built cloud-based accounting and telemetry systems, and supported distributed endpoints and hardware deployments across regulated and gray-area markets. I hold gaming licenses in Virginia and Kentucky and have worked closely with regulatory bodies to support compliance and business growth.

I approach infrastructure and operations with a security-minded lens: endpoint hardening, secure configurations, wireless security, and operational risk reduction. I hold the OSCP and eJPT certifications and am continuing to grow my capabilities in cybersecurity through practical experience and ongoing study.

I work across software, hardware, cloud, networking, operations, and compliance. If a tool, language, platform, or process helps move the business forward, I learn it and use it.

Beyond work, I have culinary school experience, am a licensed pilot, and enjoy hiking with my wife and dogs. I travel when I can, especially to Italy.
