What I'm looking for
I’m a Technical Solutions Engineer and Systems Analyst who blends software engineering, IT operations, and customer-facing technical consulting. I design and deploy workflow and API-based solutions, troubleshoot complex system issues using root-cause analysis, and translate customer requirements into scalable implementations.
Across my roles, I’ve supported end-to-end delivery in fast-paced technical environments—building integrations, improving system performance, and strengthening reliability through incident triage and process improvement. I’ve also driven measurable outcomes, including a 30% student retention increase through technical mentorship, and 15% profitability gains by improving operations and communication in business leadership.
