At Jennison Associates, I engineer and operate Omnissa Horizon VDI and VMware vSphere across 1,000+ endpoints, including 400 Linux thin clients. I delivered a 500+ desktop Windows 11 migration with zero business disruption and refreshed NVIDIA vGPU stacks for VDI.

I automate provisioning and operations with PowerShell, Bash, and GitHub Actions while owning identity, patching, monitoring, and 24x7 production operations. I’ve configured and migrated SSO for 20+ enterprise applications and use observability and security telemetry to prevent production impact.
