IT infrastructure and operations professional with nearly 20 years across academic, clinical, and financial environments. I currently support a 386-endpoint Windows and macOS fleet at the University of Pennsylvania while building automation, internal software, and applied-AI systems that reduce operational friction. My background spans endpoint engineering, networking, virtualization, cybersecurity, AV, and hands-on support — from wiring closets to faculty and leadership conversations.
Founded an independent AI safety, compliance, and information-management research initiative. Built prompt-injection scanning around an 18-rule detection framework and prototyped local/private AI workflows for academic and healthcare use cases.
Developed onboarding and application-deployment software for a university IT environment, turning recurring support work into structured, repeatable workflows with a focus on local control and operational clarity.
Designed a JAMF + Entra ID + Power Automate workflow that reduces manual onboarding steps and connects device provisioning with identity and administrative processes.
Authored a formal local/cloud AI architecture proposal including cost-benefit analysis, FERPA risk considerations, and workload routing for university IT and academic leadership.
