Message

At Copperas Cove ISD, I lead product strategy and the infrastructure roadmap for an engineering team, helping turn technology goals into district-wide plans. I also work with the CTO on the technology ecosystem and evaluate cloud storage, backup, and data protection solutions.

Earlier, I developed technical marketing content, demos, and proofs of concept for Dell VxRail and other enterprise infrastructure solutions. Across roles at Device42, Dell Technologies, Sungard Availability Services, and Fujitsu North America, I worked on storage, data protection, and cloud architectures—including work that delivered $2.3M in infrastructure savings at Fujitsu.
