His background blends a PhD in Computer Science, hands-on data science work at Bayer, and a history of building rapid grading and automation tools as a teaching assistant, showing a knack for pragmatic tooling that saves time. At Washington State University he teaches Data Structures, mentoring students and reinforcing fundamentals that inform his clear engineering communication. He’s particularly comfortable bridging infrastructure and data engineering, simplifying complex multi-cloud architectures so teams can focus on outcomes. Based in Pullman, he pairs academic rigor with production experience, often favoring small automations that yield outsized operational improvements.
