Work History
Pivoted fully into software engineering here — joining as a Systems Engineer and growing to Senior Staff SRE while building production systems across Go, TypeScript, and AWS that power IT operations at exchange scale. Drove a code-first culture across the broader IT org, shipping multiple platforms from first design through production ownership.
A large-scale device management modernization for a federal contractor — migrating from legacy corporate imaging to modern user-driven deployment workflows under strict NIST compliance requirements throughout.
Sole tier-3 and infrastructure specialist for both Windows and macOS across the entire university — owning endpoint management for hundreds of devices, deployment engineering, and technical direction for student employees.
Started as a technology intern and grew into a full-time IT Coordinator — owning Apple infrastructure across hundreds of devices and serving as backup SCCM administrator for all workstations. First exposure to enterprise-scale device management at a major US research and government contractor.
Four-year undergraduate program in the College of Engineering — the foundation for everything since. From junior year onward, balanced a full academic load with the Battelle internship that converted into a full-time role before graduating in May 2018.
Pinned Projects
A full Terraform provider for Jamf Pro — enabling infrastructure-as-code for enterprise macOS device management. Published to the Terraform Registry with 8 releases.
Auto-generated Golang library wrapping the Oomnitza OpenAPI 3 spec — supporting context-aware server selection, templated URLs, and proxy configuration for enterprise asset management.
A reliable enrollment trigger maintaining a known-order, known-network, known-login-state initial configuration for Jamf-managed machines. Widely adopted in the MacAdmins community.
A full-featured Go client for the Jamf Pro UAPI with OAuth2 support. Includes a generate script to re-generate the client from updated Jamf swagger schemas.
Automates SecureToken assignment for the Jamf-assigned user via a known-state admin account — enabling a fully hands-off FileVault 2 management workflow without exposing admin credentials.
Contributor to NoMAD Login 1.4 — major SecureToken / FileVault support. Led the primary refactor of Authchanger, now shipping inside Jamf Connect. (Orchard & Grove)
Skills & Tools
The Ohio State University
Graduated with Dean's List recognition from the College of Engineering. The program built a strong foundation in systems programming, algorithms, and software architecture that directly informs the distributed systems and infrastructure work done since.
Focused specialization in network security, attack methodologies, and enterprise risk management. Understanding how security breaches occur — and how to execute them — informs a practical, adversarial approach to building secure infrastructure. Combined with nearly 7 years of hands-on IT experience entering graduation.
Jamf Certified Technician (Jamf 200) and Jamf Certified Administrator (Jamf 300) — the two primary professional certifications for enterprise Apple device management.
Interests
Continued rowing after college with the Greater Columbus Rowing Association, serving as Equipment Chair. At Ohio State served as elected Safety Officer and Boatman — managing boat repairs, scheduling, and equipment budgets.
Favourite authors include Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child, and John Flanagan. Current favourite: Relic by Preston & Child.
Road cycling as a way to stay active and clear the head — both long solo rides and group rides with friends through Central Ohio.
Teaching myself to cook — already makes a pretty solid pasta sauce, apparently.
