Technical project leader blending software development, data automation, and operations to deliver measurable savings.
What I'm looking for
I am a technical project leader with a B.S. in Computer Engineering who builds custom software and automation to streamline operations and save time and costs. I design and deploy Python-based applications, implement version control and release processes, and integrate tools to replace fragile manual workflows.
Throughout my career I have driven measurable efficiencies—reducing forecasting time by 95%, saving 500+ hours/year across teams, cutting payroll prep from 10–12 hours to ~1 hour, and eliminating third-party software costs. I pair hands-on engineering with strategic planning, data analysis, and cross-functional leadership to produce reliable, repeatable systems.
My background includes technology leadership in construction tech, project engineering, and over a decade of military operations and training leadership where I managed multi-million dollar budgets and mentored large teams. I produce high-quality digital content and build brand visibility while ensuring operational excellence and stakeholder alignment.
