I am a seasoned leader with over ten years of experience managing teams, eight of which I have been additionally responsible for managing several instances of Jira. I am also an experienced all-source analyst focused on identifying, characterizing, and exploiting vulnerabilities to the United States across all domains.

I have served in the United States Air Force since 2004 and have worked in the tactical, operational, and strategic levels of military operations. I am a certified Air Force instructor experienced in conducting Joint Targeting training to tactical audiences.

On the civilian side, I have a B.S. in Business Administration and will receive my M.S. in Cyber Security in July 2022.

Interests

Outside of my professional life I am an avid homebrewer. This hobby allows me to blend my interest in technology and automation into the beer brewing process. I have built raspberry pi based temperature controllers for the hot and cold side processes and Arduino based inventory monitors. I am also a woodworking hobbyist were I use the skills I learned as a machinist to build furniture.
You can check out some of my projects at my GitHub.

I am a life-long learner with unlimited interests. I am currently researching homelabs to better familiarize myself with home networking, virtualization, and the Linux OS.
