About

Pragmatic automation, measurable reliability

Who I am

I’m a DevOps Engineer based in Seattle, focused on infrastructure automation, cloud architecture, and high-availability systems. I work closely with engineering teams to remove friction from delivery and keep production predictable.

How I work

I prefer clean infrastructure-as-code, automated delivery, and observability-first operations. My goal is to reduce manual toil, prevent incidents proactively, and keep systems easy to evolve.
