About Me

I am an adaptable technical generalist with broad experience, ranging from circuit board rework to troubleshooting custom code in enterprise CRMs. Currently, security and networking are my two particular areas of interest. I love finding connections, engineering effective solutions, and discovering the perfect way to explain a concept.

Even after years of experience in customer contact, first-line support, and running educational sessions for middle schoolers, it makes my day when I can make someone else’s day. I love making a difference in my community, whether I am volunteering for Girl Scouts and Maker Faires, or contributing to Project Gutenberg and Wikipedia.

Currently, I’m pursuing ISC2 Associate certification on the path to CISSP, working on projects for myself, and creating and hosting websites for my community.

a few things i’m proud of

  • Co-authoring Actuators and the Power To Do Tasks, published by Cavendish Square, part of a set of secondary-level robotics textbooks.
  • Independently identifying and submitting evidence on the code causing a long-term HubSpot integration failure in a past role.
  • Coaching FIRST Robotics teams (Lego League and VEX), as well as volunteering as a Judge for competitions.
