Backend-focused software engineer with 4+ years of experience building, deploying, and operating production systems that span software, infrastructure, and hardware. I specialize in backend services, API development, Linux-based deployments, and Docker-driven CI/CD, with hands-on experience supporting live pilots and real-world systems.

Before software engineering, I worked as a paramedic. That background shapes how I approach systems today: reliability matters, failures are expensive, and clear communication under pressure is non-negotiable.

Outside of work, I volunteer with a Portland civic coding organization, Code PDX, and spend time exploring embedded systems, CAD, and game development.
