About Me

I am an experienced engineer with a varied background in the energy, retail, and cloud computing industries. I graduated from UT Austin with a bachelor's degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering and a master's degree in Engineering Management.

I now work at Google helping startups scale their technology and businesses using Google Cloud. I have a passion for learning new, cutting-edge technologies, and teaching them to others. Outside of work, I love to travel, eat, and spend time with my wife and two dogs.
