Work I’m proud of.
High-impact programs across cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, AI tooling and defense — from a global outage handled with urgency and precision to mission-critical systems for national defense. Each entry: what it was, and what it changed.
Builder · M.S. Capstone, Univ. of San Diego · 2025 — 26 An AI assistant for PMOs, built and run in production — then evaluated against its own live telemetry for the M.S. Engineering Leadership & Management capstone (EML-595). Retrieval grounded in the program's own corpus: 24,500 documents across 14 portfolios.
- Owned the application and its operating environment — from first commit through general availability, 37 modular workflow capabilities.
- 94.3% of tracked action items captured automatically; status-report turnaround at a 7.7-minute median.
- Evaluation as the deliverable: predefined KPIs, a derived time-savings model, and a faithfulness audit grading output against its sources.

- Ships an offline archive snapshot — 6,354 planets across 4,764 systems in ~2 MB — refreshed from the live TAP service in the background, at most once a day.
- Tested astronomy core: missing orbits recovered via Kepler’s third law, Kopparapu habitable zones, spectral class derived from temperature — estimates flagged, never hidden.
- Native-GL pragmatism: a never-unmounted canvas, manual raycaster picking, and additive-sprite glow where post-processing can’t run.

Read the write-up →Lead EPM · CrowdStrike · Aug 2024 The cross-functional response to the critical global outage caused by a misconfigured Sensor Channel File — re-architecting the deployment process for safety, transparency and automation.
- Directed execution across nine functions — Legal, TechOps, Platform, ProdSec, InfoSec, Data Science, Detection and Sensor.
- Partnered with VPs to reprioritize company-wide backlogs for a hardened continuous-deployment pipeline.
- Defined the ring-based rollout that now delivers Channel Files gradually and safely to customer environments.
