Work Experience
IBM Security, Senior Software Engineer
October 2021 - Present
Austin, Texas
My "Big Blue" journey began on an incubation team in IBM Security as a Senior Software Engineer. This team gives me the opportunity to test out new technology and build proof of concept applications that will get extended by other teams. This was a fascinating role, where I get to shape the future of IBM's technology.
In 2022 I transitioned to a new team, where I audited our software services for security vulnerabilities. It was my responsibility to write and maintain automated tests for ongoing monitoring, and a suite of manual scripts to manage servers around the globe. Ultimately, I had to ensure compliance with multiple strict security guidelines.
HumanN, Lead Software Engineer
May 2019 - October 2021
Austin, Texas
HumanN, a functional foods and nutritional supplement company hired me as a Lead Software Engineer to modernize their technology. They are one of the fastest growing companies in the U.S., making the Inc. 5000 list the last 10 years in a row (2015 - 2024). I contributed to this hyper growth by:
- Architected and developed an in-house subscription management platform. It can process millions of dollars per month in transactions, has detailed logging and error handling for our customer service department to monitor, and a customer facing portal allows users to self manage their subscriptions.
- Built customized back office tools and automation which integrate directly with vendors.
- Migrated to a more scalable data warehouse using Snowflake, which included over a dozen data sources loaded via ELT tools, automated exports to FTP and S3, and a heavily used Tableau reporting layer.
- Designed a heavily used reporting layer to identify changes in the market.

Some accomplishments were collaborating with international teams, hosting large events, and learning from talented engineers.
KathodeRay Media, Web Developer
May 2011 - April 2015
Albany, New York
I landed my first development job at KathodeRay Media Inc., a marketing agency in Upstate New York. I learned how to be a team player and got to participate in a variety of projects from start to finish. Working and living in New York was an incredible experience.
Full Sail University, B.S. Web Design & Development
September 2008 - July 2010
Winter Park, Florida
I moved from chilly central Pennsylvania to sunny Winter Park, Florida, to attend Full Sail University. While there I realized my strength is in developing websites over designing them. Two short years later, I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Web Design and Development.
