Who I Am

I'm an endpoint automation engineer with over a decade of progressive IT experience, from museum helpdesk intern to owning the entire endpoint and identity platform for a distributed organization. My career has spanned clinical healthcare IT, white-glove executive support at Brookfield Properties, MSP operations, and now full-stack endpoint engineering.

I've built and operated endpoint platforms managing 500+ devices across Intune and Jamf, designed Conditional Access frameworks from scratch, built HR-driven identity lifecycle automation with production runbooks, and implemented full endpoint security stacks — ASR rules, BitLocker, Defender EDR, LAPS. I architect solutions, build them, operate them, and document them.

What sets me apart is depth of ownership. I don't implement solutions designed by others. Every Conditional Access policy, every compliance baseline, every automation runbook in my environments exists because I designed it.
