I have spent 20+ years building systems where failure is expensive. I co-founded one of Orlando's first ISPs, then moved into large-scale software and now production AI in high-stakes environments. My focus has stayed the same: build software that keeps working under real load.

I work across distributed infrastructure, security, and intelligent systems. I am CISSP-certified, so I design with attack surfaces in mind from day one, not as a late-stage patch.

Right now I am focused on agentic AI: memory-persistent agents, evaluation frameworks, and making autonomous systems reliable in practice. Outside work, I spend time in theoretical physics, neuroscience, and pure mathematics to sharpen the abstractions I bring back into engineering.
