About

I’m from Bucks County, Pennsylvania. I studied Aerospace Engineering at Penn State (BS and MS), then moved to Colorado to work at Lockheed Martin. I’d done some engineering coding in school (Visual Basic, C++, MATLAB) but didn’t get serious about software until 2019 when I started taking web development courses.

From there I kept going, diving deep into systems programming, the Linux programming interface, and Python. I put those skills to work at Lockheed: fixing bugs on our internal site, building documentation search, and writing telemetry processing scripts for spacecraft health analysis.

In 2021 I left Lockheed for AWS, where I joined as a Dedicated Cloud engineer, a devops-like role supporting the build and operations of AWS services in government regions. Small teams meant wearing multiple hats. I was formally a senior engineer, but informally took on program management: planning builds, creating tracking mechanisms for engineers, triaging and escalating issues. After leading the build of a new service in one of our regions, I was promoted to senior engineer. I later moved to the AI/ML team, where I coordinated multiple service builds in both roles.

In October 2025, after four years at AWS, I left to start Inquisita, a document intelligence platform that gives AI assistants the infrastructure to search, organize, and analyze thousands of documents at scale. The idea is simple: the AI you already pay for is more capable than the tools you’re buying around it. Inquisita bridges that gap without locking you into another vendor.

This blog is where I share technical projects and things I’m learning along the way.
