About

Engineering clarity for complex systems.

I currently work at ServiceNow on the GTM Entitlements team. I have experience working within distributed agile teams on a variety of problems. Most recently, I was a key member of a team responsible for delivering a comprehensive case management solution for Jumio's Unified Portal on its KYX (Know Your Customer/ Everything) platform.

I thrive in distributed agile environments, balancing the rigorous demands of enterprise software with the dynamic, fast-paced needs of modern platforms. Whether it's crafting scalable microservices, building intuitive UIs, or optimizing data pipelines, I bring a commitment to excellence and innovation.
