I’m a senior software engineer with more than five years of experience across cloud development, software security, and government contracting. At Oracle, I support and develop the APIs behind Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute. Before software engineering, I served six years on active duty in the United States Air Force, maintaining CV-22 avionics in austere environments and training the technicians who followed.
