About

Hey! I'm a Principal Software Engineer with 9+ years of experience building and scaling cloud-based SaaS platforms. I focus on delivering the right solution through empathy, iterative execution, and careful observability. My work spans full-stack development, platform architecture, and technical leadership—helping teams ship high-quality changes consistently while mentoring the next generation of engineers.

Experience

Currently at Blackbaud, I lead teams building large-scale nonprofit SaaS products used by thousands of customers. I've architected query systems, designed global address APIs, shipped event registration platforms, and contributed to AI adoption patterns. Previously at CarMax, I optimized online appraisal experiences. Earlier work includes mobile auction software, email marketing platforms, and internal developer tooling that reduced cloud costs.
