I’m an IT leader working at the intersection of research, infrastructure, and security. I focus on building and operating the systems that support complex, mission-driven work—spanning servers, networks, cloud platforms, high-performance computing, and organizational security. My work centers on balancing reliability, risk, and growth so that systems are resilient, well-managed, and able to evolve over time. With a background in software engineering and research support in environmental and climate science, I tend to start with the problem itself, respect real-world constraints, and build solutions that are practical and maintainable. This site is a place to share what I’m working on, what I’m learning, and how I think about building systems—technical and organizational—that are meant to last.
