About

I’m an IT leader working at the intersection of research, infrastructure, and security. I currently serve as the Director of IT at Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences, where I’m responsible for the strategy, design, and operation of the systems that support cutting-edge oceanographic research.

My work covers infrastructure, cybersecurity, and long-term planning. I’m responsible for systems ranging from servers, networks, and cloud platforms to high-performance computing environments and organizational security policies. Much of my role involves balancing reliability, risk, and growth—making sure systems are resilient, well-managed, and able to evolve alongside the research they support.

Earlier in my career, I worked as a software engineer and research assistant, supporting environmental and climate science through data analysis, automation, and custom software. That experience continues to inform how I approach IT today: start with a clear understanding of the problem, respect constraints, and build solutions that are practical and maintainable.

In addition to my work at Bigelow, I consult with small and mid-sized organizations and nonprofits, helping them think through infrastructure, security, and operational challenges.

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.
