What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages team collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth in software development and project management.

I am a results-driven Software Developer and Project Manager with over 7 years of experience in software development, system administration, and project leadership. My journey began at Old Dominion University, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a minor in Cybersecurity, graduating with honors. I have a strong foundation in programming and a passion for delivering innovative software solutions that improve operational efficiency.

Currently, I manage multiple software and operating environment projects at NSWCDD DNA, where I lead a team of government and contractor employees. My key achievements include developing and deploying a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 operating environment for the Ship Self-Defense System and successfully migrating software projects to a CI/CD environment. I am skilled in various programming languages and frameworks, and I thrive in Linux-based environments, where I implement automation and cybersecurity best practices.
