He has a solid Java background from roles at Dematic Reddwerks and Center of Agile Technology, where he developed warehousing workflow engines, led application migrations, and built database migration tools using MySQL and Informix. Comfortable across front-end (HTML/Struts/Tomcat) and back-end stacks, he combines hands-on coding with operational experience in deployments and Scrum-based teams. With engineering degrees from Texas A&M and UT Austin, he brings both electrical/electronics and computer engineering perspectives that help him bridge low-level system thinking with application design.
