My path into software started in 2014 as a student intern at Barrow County Schools, imaging laptops and chasing down network gremlins. More than a decade later, I’m a software engineer at Charter Communications (Cox Communications until the two companies merged in 2026), where I’ve led a platform migration to Google Cloud, helped build an internal LLM platform for our Sales teams, and cut our incident resolution time by two-thirds.
Along the way I earned my B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science from the University of Georgia. I still care about the same thing I did on day one: technology should just work for the people who depend on it. These days I’m most excited about agentic AI. I build open-source tools in my spare time, and I put a lot of energy into mentoring other engineers and helping them grow.
10+years in tech, from help desk to cloud platforms
50%faster response times after our GCP migration
66%lower MTTR after rolling out New Relic
98%of security vulnerabilities remediated
What I care about
Secure by default
Security isn’t a last-minute checklist. I build it into the pipeline so the safe path is also the easy one.
Built to last
I like boring deploys, clear observability, and code that the next person can pick up without a tour guide.
Lift others up
The best part of my week is helping a teammate get unstuck. Strong teams beat solo heroics every time.
Things I’m Building
Side projects where I get to explore ideas and give a little back to the open-source community.
Plug-and-play authentication, authorization, and rate-limiting for FastAPI/ASGI apps. Swap between Local JWT, Google, AWS Cognito, Azure AD, GitHub, or Discord providers without touching your application code.
AI-powered log anomaly detection that runs locally or in the cloud, with real-time streaming, 12 built-in parsers, multi-channel alerting, and privacy-first offline analysis.
Software Engineer II·Aug 2026 – Present·Atlanta, GA
Joined Charter in August 2026 when Cox Communications and Charter Communications merged, continuing to build and run the same cloud, CI/CD, and AI platforms as part of the combined company.
Cox Communications Inc.
Software Engineer II·Jul 2021 – Aug 2026·Atlanta, GA
Cloud transformation: Led the end-to-end migration of a mission-critical PaaS ecosystem from legacy Rancher to Google Cloud (GCP/Anthos), improving system response times by 50% and giving us a foundation that scales.
Architecture & code quality: Architected a multi-tier Knowledge Management platform in Python and modern JavaScript, and standardized on clean MVC patterns that reduced legacy technical debt by 25%.
AI/ML innovation: Co-architected an internal enterprise LLM platform for Sales operations, integrating graph database modules and ML pipelines that turn complex agent data into predictive insights for leadership.
CI/CD & delivery: Designed automated Jenkins pipelines that deliver zero-downtime rollouts across Dev, QA, and Production clusters on Docker and Kubernetes.
Observability & security: Rolled out New Relic and cut mean time to resolution by 66%. Hardened our platforms with Prisma Cloud, remediating 98% of vulnerabilities and automating CVE patching.
Governance & mentorship: Represented my team at weekly Change Advisory Board meetings, mentored junior engineers, and was an active leader in the Python@Cox community.
