About Me

lines

I am a Senior Software Engineer specializing in architecting and maintaining high-availability enterprise applications. With a deep focus on Java legacy modernization and system scalability, I engineer solutions that support critical government infrastructure, including the South Dakota Medicaid system which handles 400+ concurrent users and complex transactional workflows.

My expertise lies in performance engineering and data integrity. I have successfully optimized high-volume batch processes to manage over 100 million records, significantly reducing processing time and operational overhead. Beyond core development, I drive system reliability through advanced log analysis, APIM observability, and proactive defect remediation.

I thrive in collaborative environments and am committed to elevating team standards. I actively mentor junior engineers, conduct rigorous code reviews, and foster a culture of continuous improvement, ensuring that every release is not just functional, but maintainable and secure.
