He blends a strong academic foundation—MSc in Informatics from the University of Edinburgh and a BSc in Computer Science from the University of Florida—with hands-on expertise in Spring, JAX-RS, Elasticsearch, Docker, Kubernetes, and Azure. At General Motors he improved search performance by integrating Elasticsearch and practiced TDD and CI/CD for scalable services, while earlier roles emphasized full-stack and front-end design with the MEAN stack and Angular.
