Most systems work—until their assumptions break.

These days I operate mostly on the management side, but I still think like an engineer and write code when needed. My background sits across engineering and consulting, and a lot of my work happens at the intersection of technology, payments, and execution — making systems actually work in the real world, across teams, constraints, and environments.

I spend a good part of my time traveling, which gives me a front-row seat to how things really operate — not in theory, but in practice. Payments, infrastructure, people, and all the messy parts in between.

Outside of work, I’m usually chasing good coffee, training, or trying to understand things by breaking them down — whether it’s a technical system, a business problem, or something I picked up from history.
