I'm a Technology Solutions Architect, Web Application Developer, and User Interface Designer currently living in Clive, Iowa. This small personal site is maintained to showcase tiny fragments of my work.

My passion lies at the conflux of design, technology, innovation, and mindfulness. My work is guided by that passion and reinforced by my grit, tenacity, and sense of observation.

I’m a creative autodidact who derives satisfaction from delivering innovative and practical solutions. When the aforementioned elements come together in the right way it generates tremendous value for all, regardless of the medium, or the domain.

As an Architect and delivery manager, I'm blessed with the opportunity to help organizations navigate their Digital Transformation and Digital Decoupling journeys. I'm called upon in my current role as an evangelist and a visionary who can deliver untapped business value by formulating leading-edge technical solutions at scale.

I have a keen interest in the modern web development tapestry of tools & techniques: cloud native applications, DevOps, AI/ML, IoT, digital twin, enterprise architecture, business architecture, liquid architecture delivery, product development, design thinking, thought leadership, strategy, and empowering people to deliver brilliance.

Some tools, technologies, and paradigms I'm comfortable with are Technical Architecture Delivery, Cloud Architecture, Apache Pulsar, Kafka, JavaScript (ES6+), NodeJS, REST, Microservices, Cloud Native Applications, Amazon Web Services (AWS), AWS Architecture, Lambda, Serverless, EC2, CI/CD, TDD/BDD, React, Angular, jQuery, HTML, CSS, SASS, Bootstrap, ChartJS (Data Visualization), Git, GitHub, Atlassian JIRA, Confluence, Agile, Scrum, XP, Pair Programming, Kanban, DevOps, etc.

I'm currently guiding Fortune 500 clients in modernizing their business strategy by providing architectural expertise regarding custom cloud integration solutions and legacy systems modernization. In the past, I've worked on corporate website rebuild projects, complex mission critical B2C and B2B applications with a global reach, as well as smaller one-off projects.

Technology without the human component is not very meaningful. My interest lies in working with others and empowering them to push the boundaries of what is possible. The real magic happens when a diverse group of people work together to deliver value in the lives of others. That is when a greater purpose is realized.

Aside from design & technology, my interests include traveling, reading, meditation, nature, people, human rights, and music. I used to be heavily involved in DJ-ing and still play an occasional gig when inspiration strikes. I also enjoy playing Cricket during the summer months when possible. I'm blessed to have a strong foundation of loving friends and family to accompany me through this adventure we call life. Thanks for visiting!
