IT Systems & Network Engineer with 15+ years building and securing hybrid cloud infrastructure. I specialize in zero-trust networking, cloud identity, virtualization, and automation — and I love sharing the processes behind the work. If something resonates, let's build together.
I'm a Systems and Network Administrator based in Houston, TX with a deep background in cloud identity, infrastructure security, and hands-on engineering across SMB and enterprise environments.
I believe infrastructure should be resilient, documented, and understood — not just running. Whether recovering mission-critical VMs after a power outage or migrating 100+ users to Office 365 with zero downtime, I treat every project as something worth owning end-to-end.
Currently expanding into solar PV system design (NABCEP certification in progress) and applying AI prompt engineering to streamline technical documentation and support workflows.
Pursuing NABCEP PV Design Specialist Certification. Studying NEC code compliance, site analysis, array sizing, and full PV system modeling — bridging IT infrastructure expertise into renewable energy systems.
Designing and documenting zero-trust models for small and mid-size businesses using Twingate and Docker-based deployments. Building reusable architecture templates that smaller teams can actually implement and own.
Applying prompt engineering to accelerate technical documentation, incident response writeups, and client reporting. Exploring how AI tools reduce time-to-resolution in complex support and migration scenarios.
I don't hand off problems — I follow them through. Whether it's a VM recovery at 2am or a cross-continental ERP migration, I stay in the loop from diagnosis to resolution to documentation. The best infrastructure work is invisible to users and fully legible to whoever comes next.
Every project I deliver includes network diagrams, VLAN maps, deployment standards, and runbooks. Good documentation is a form of respect — for future maintainers, for clients, and for yourself at 11pm troubleshooting something you built three years ago.
Zero-trust, VLAN segmentation, immutable backups, and MFA aren't bolt-ons — they're decisions made at design time. I push to bake security into the foundation of every network and identity system I touch, not patch it in after something breaks.
Every deployment includes user training and clear handoff documentation. I've trained teams on Teams, SharePoint, ERP workflows, and IT security. If the people using the system don't understand it, the project isn't done.
