About Me

I'm an Infrastructure Engineer at Snap, Inc., based in London, UK. My work spans infrastructure projects across EMEA, asset lifecycle management, and cloud services for internal applications. I work closely with engineering teams, project managers, and vendors to support office deployments and keep infrastructure well documented and maintainable.

Raised in Virginia, I started teaching myself programming at 13 and built my career through hands-on experience in data centres, IT support, and infrastructure engineering. Along the way, I've worked on cabling and hardware deployments, introduced service management tools, and developed scripts to simplify everyday operations. After supporting Snap through contract roles with Regent Technology Solutions and Zitko Group, I joined Snap as an Infrastructure Engineer in April 2026.

I enjoy turning complex problems into practical solutions, whether that means automating a repetitive task, improving a deployment workflow, or writing documentation that makes the next person's job easier. Curiosity and continuous learning have shaped my career, and technology and gaming remain a big part of life outside work.
