Message

At The Walt Disney Company (Disney Streaming), I engineered, deployed, and operated VXLAN EVPN fabrics across 8 origin datacenters with 1,000+ Cisco NX-OS and Arista EOS switches. I also planned site-level engineering and IP implementation for the AMS1 and EWR1 datacenter buildouts.

I led network design and buildout work at Hulu, including the Switch LAS and Equinix IAD datacenter projects. I also refactored the IAD datacenter and supported AWS VPC networking and Infrastructure-as-Code deployments using Terraform.

At VCA Antech, I designed and supported network infrastructure for headquarters and datacenters serving 800+ veterinary hospitals. I also deployed Riverbed SteelHead WAN optimization across more than 200 remote clinic and lab locations.

Earlier, at Red Bull North America, I led a datacenter migration from Mesa, AZ to St. Louis, MO with zero unplanned downtime. At AT&T, I supported large enterprise WAN infrastructure, including networks for Los Angeles County, Department of Health Services, and LAUSD.
