// about
I'm an enterprise IT operations professional who enjoys improving how technology teams work, communicate, and support the business. My background combines hands-on IT experience with a strong interest in service improvement, documentation, automation, and practical problem solving.
This site highlights both my professional IT background and selected applied technology projects that show how I think, build, and solve problems. I enjoy being part of a strong team, helping others grow, and contributing to better workflows. I'm also open to helping build or mature a team where structure, documentation, and steady leadership can make a real difference.
C:\experience
A high-level view of how my career has progressed. For the full detail — dates, tools, and accomplishments — the resume is one click away.
Vaughn College of Aeronautics — a hands-on engineering foundation in complex systems, diagnostics, and precision work.
Actively building automation and scripting depth — PowerShell, Python, and AI-assisted tooling — applied to real operational and documentation work.
C:\skills
The tools and capabilities I work with most, grouped by area. Enterprise IT on one side, hands-on applied technology on the other — and automation running through both.
C:\how-i-work
I work best in environments where technology, people, and process all matter. My background is rooted in hands-on IT operations, but the part of the work I enjoy most is helping teams operate better: clearer documentation, better handoffs, fewer repeated issues, stronger communication, and more practical structure around the work.
I enjoy working closely with others, sharing what I know, and helping teammates solve problems. I like being part of a strong team, and I am also open to helping build or mature a team when the opportunity calls for it. I try to be someone people can come to for support, troubleshooting, guidance, or a steady second set of eyes when something needs to be figured out.
My leadership style is practical, supportive, and service-focused. I believe good IT teams need clear expectations, useful documentation, reliable tools, and people who are willing to solve problems without ego. I try to be the person who understands the technical details, sees where the process is breaking down, and helps connect the right people to the right solution.
I am focused on leadership-oriented IT roles where I can help improve service operations, team communication, documentation, tool governance, and automation-enabled workflows. I work best in environments that value steady leadership, practical problem solving, and continuous improvement.
Enterprise IT operations and service improvement.
Team support, mentoring, and workflow maturity.
Monitoring and operational visibility.
CMDB / IT asset data accuracy.
Zscaler, access workflows, and documentation.
AI-assisted automation and process improvement.
However a role is framed — IT operations, automation, or a hands-on build — the constant is the same: understand the system, document it clearly, test it honestly, and leave it better than I found it.
C:\applied-technology
Projects that show how I approach design, problem solving, documentation, AI-assisted research, CAD, 3D printing, and prototyping. Several of these are open to collaboration and sponsorship — see how we can work together.
My flagship applied-technology project: concept design, a GT-inspired cockpit architecture, CAN systems integration, and documented, version-controlled engineering. Explore the dedicated project page.
open project page →Reverse-engineered a discontinued automotive component from physical measurements — modeled in SolidWorks, printed in FDM, and fitment-tested across several revisions until it matched the original mounting points and clearances.
Designed and prototyped custom housings and mounts for an automotive lighting system, balancing mechanical fitment, heat clearance, wiring routing, and finish across successive printed revisions.
A structured, manufacturer-style design process for a custom vehicle-technology concept: AI-assisted research and requirements gathering, driver-experience planning, instrumentation and HMI layout, embedded-hardware concepts, and prototype fabrication — documented end to end the way a product team would.
Used AI-assisted research and step-by-step guidance to drive a Blender modeling workflow — from reference study and blockout to clean, watertight, print-ready geometry — including a full widebody vehicle model built for scale reproduction.
C:\collaborate
Outside of full-time roles, I take on a small number of applied-technology collaborations. Whether you're a partner, a sponsor, or a fellow builder, here are a few ways we can work together — kept deliberately limited so each one gets real attention.
Measurement-based part reproduction and print-ready models (STL / 3MF), designed for real-world fitment.
discuss this →Concept to working prototype: design, print, test, and iterate until it fits and functions.
discuss this →Sponsor an active build — automotive, RC, or custom hardware — for product placement, shared content, and co-marketing.
discuss this →AI-assisted design workflows, automation, and IT operations advisory for teams and small ventures.
discuss this →Open to all three. I'm in the Central New Jersey / NYC metro area and flexible on arrangement for the right role.
Both. I'm open to full-time leadership-oriented IT roles, and to select contract or partnership work on the applied-technology side.
Yes — a limited number at a time, so each project gets the attention it deserves.
Email or LinkedIn, both linked below. I usually reply within a business day or two.
