About Me
Architect Behind The Screens
I design automated, secure, and bulletproof device environments. As a Microsoft Intune and VMware Architect managing over 35,000+ endpoints, I approach enterprise infrastructure through an engineering lens — treating client fleet configuration as a craft and zero-trust security as a baseline.
When I am not scaling cloud infrastructure or fine-tuning PowerShell automation scripts, my free time is dedicated to building and breaking configurations in my self-hosted homelab, collecting rare and historical coins (numismatics), diving into sci-fi and tech strategy literature, or sharpening tactical thinking through strategic gaming and speedcubing.
