NOW & PHILOSOPHY

Now & Philosophy

Where I’m focused — and why it matters.

What I’m Doing Now

I’m exploring new opportunities in program and project management at the intersection of clean energy, systems integration, and applied AI. My sweet spot is turning complex, multi-stakeholder work into crisp plans that ship: clear scope, disciplined execution, real outcomes.

Day-to-day, I’m sharpening workflows across the Apple ecosystem (Mac, iPhone, iPad) with automation and AI—lightweight systems that reduce noise and keep projects moving.

If my background aligns with a role you’re hiring for, I’m open to a quick intro call.

Work Philosophy

Two decades as a U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer (948B) and a career spanning defense, IT, and renewable energy taught me that strong projects rest on clarity, trust, and iteration.

  • Systems over chaos. Start with the architecture, then make it human. The best plans are usable by busy teams.
  • Bias for action. Ship value in small, inspectable slices. Momentum beats slide-ware.
  • Accountability with calm. Communicate plainly, decide transparently, and remove drama from the work.
  • Tools serve people. Technology should simplify decisions and surface the next right action.

My north star is measurable progress: schedule adherence, risk burn-down, and outcomes you can point at.

A Personal Note

I like work that rewards curiosity and discipline in equal measure. On the creative side, I tinker with Apple-centric design and photography; on the operational side, I tune processes until they hum.
