What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a meaningful opportunity to bring deep experience, practical optimism, and steady leadership to an organization, creating lasting impact through resilient architecture, disciplined delivery, and capable people.

At Magellan Health, I architected and administered the enterprise SnapLogic ETL platform and designed pipelines connecting AWS S3, REST APIs, databases, and other systems. I also collaborated on migrating more than 1,000 legacy pipelines to AWS Glue, reducing end-to-end processing runtimes by 80%.

As a Senior Database Administrator at Magellan Health, I led SQL Server administration across recovery, availability, performance, automation, monitoring, and security. I engineered backup and recovery strategies and designed high-availability and contingency environments.

At St. Charles Community College, I teach database management, SQL, Oracle programming, project management, and technology ethics. I develop curriculum and help learners understand complex technical concepts clearly.
