About

I've been in the tech industry since early 2021. I am currently a Software Developer working with public sector clients. Outside of work I enjoy learning about cybersecurity, AI, and, other tech topics. I try to maintain knowledge of this ever changing industry. Outside of tech, I enjoy running, lifting and getting outdoors.

Why limit your dreams? They are yours afterall.
