About

Me

I'm a software/systems engineer with a passion for problem solving. I am opinionated, but try my best to be open-minded. Those who have worked with me know I won't shy away from telling you how I feel - I think directness is critical to effective communication. Some of my core values are Empathy, Trust & Respect, Intellectual Curiosity, and Continuous Improvement.

My career has spanned across the aerospace and defense industry, finance, and cloud technologies. I've worked mostly as software engineer and architect, which has given me a breadth of technical, system, and management knowledge. More detail about my professional background can be found in my bio.

This site

This site is a place for me to write things down - often to organize my own thoughts on a topic - but hopefully with the added benefit of being useful to others. I thrive at the intersection of leadership, architecture, and engineering - and I hope to share some of my insights here.

Disclosures

I decided to include a disclosures section here to make clear my biases and external interests.

From 2021 - 2024 I was owned Triple Dot Engineering, which I reference in several places on this site. As of late-2024, I have shut down Triple Dot Engineering and have moved on to other day-to-day work.

I hold an Adjunct Faculty position at the University of Central Florida supporting the Interdisciplinary Engineering Capstone Design program. Many of the topics I write about are of direct relevance to my students. All UCF targeted posts are tagged with the "UCF" tag.
