Architecting cloud infrastructure end to end, from the systems and the pipelines that connect them to the dashboards stakeholders make decisions on.

Embedding agentic workflows from the foundation, with every piece defined as code and shipped through reviewed CI/CD pipelines, so changes move fast, at scale and securely. Secretless by design, built on federated identity and single sign-on.

Building native apps for Mac, Windows and iOS.

I live in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Where the sockeye salmon is abundant, people are friendly, the sea breeze is fresh, and the climate can be overcast.

If I am not in my home office where I spend most of my day, you can find me biking around the city.

I care about health, design, photography, writing, art, philosophy, and connecting with awesome people.

I seek to be inspired, to envision the unlikely, to work hard for things that are worth it, and to be surrounded by those who bring out the best in me.
