About

I'm a Software Engineer who enjoys owning features end to end—from API design and backend logic to the interface users interact with. Over the past three years at Providence, I've built on a unified observability platform supporting 50+ clinical applications, working across Python, React, Azure, Kubernetes, and CI/CD. I enjoy solving problems that sit at the intersection of software engineering, cloud infrastructure, and developer experience. Some of my key contributions include delivering full-stack observability features, leading a Kubernetes migration that reduced deployment time by 50%, building Azure governance automation using PowerShell, creating a Power BI compliance platform that became the department's single source of truth, and developing an LLM-powered chatbot that enables engineers to query telemetry data using natural language. I value clean API design, scalable systems, thoughtful code reviews, and building software that's reliable in production—not just functional in development. Cloud and DevOps are a core part of my day-to-day work, and I'm continuing to expand my AI skills through hands-on projects and structured learning. I'm always interested in building products that simplify complex operational challenges and create a better experience for engineers.
