Software Engineer
I'm a Software Engineer at Health First building production AI tooling and RPA automation, and an IT Specialist in the Army Reserve. Outside of work I run a Proxmox homelab and built Claudio, a self-hosted AI assistant that manages my calendar and tasks from Telegram.
I'm a software engineer at Health First, where I build internal AI tooling and automation that save thousands of hours a year. I also serve as an IT Specialist in the Army Reserve, and I'm currently working toward an MBA in IT Management.
I finished my Bachelor's in Computer Information Systems Technology at Eastern Florida State College and I'm now pursuing an MBA in IT Management at Florida Tech. Before moving into engineering, I spent a few years in IT field support — which is probably why I still enjoy building and running my own infrastructure at home: a Proxmox homelab, self-hosted apps, and automations that make day-to-day life easier.

A few of the certifications I've earned along the way.
Florida Institute of Technology · Melbourne, FL
Pursuing a Master's in Business Administration focused on IT Management, building on my engineering background with the business side of running technology organizations.
Eastern Florida State College · Cocoa, FL
Finished my degree with a focus in software development — hands-on projects designing, coding, and maintaining software to solve real-world business problems.
Health First · Rockledge, FL
Built and deployed a .NET AI chatbot with Microsoft Foundry to production for 10,000+ employees, integrating with the ticketing system via APIs to create tickets, check status, and add notes, with guided troubleshooting that resolves issues before a ticket is needed. Automated business workflows with UiPath, contributing to roughly 20,000 hours of annual time savings across departments.
U.S. Army Reserve · Rockledge, FL
Configure and troubleshoot Cisco switches, routers, and LANs for 20+ users across garrison and field sites, maintain accountability of IT equipment with zero losses, and train soldiers and leaders on system use and cyber hygiene.
Health First · Rockledge, FL
Maintained close to 8,000 computers plus peripherals and printers, streamlining support processes to reduce response times, and mentored junior technicians.
A couple of things I'm building right now.
A self-hosted personal AI assistant running a local Qwen 3.5 9B model via Ollama on a dedicated Tesla P4 GPU server — no cloud LLM dependency. I chat with it through Telegram, and a tool-calling orchestrator lets it manage my Apple Calendar (CalDAV), do web research, and track tasks in a SQL Server database it can only touch through fixed, parameterized queries.
A full-stack bill-tracking web app built with ASP.NET Core Razor Pages (C#, .NET 10) and SQL Server, with secure bcrypt-hashed authentication, session management, and account settings. Containerized with Docker and deployed behind a Caddy reverse proxy as the pilot for an automated CI/CD pipeline.
A Proxmox VE homelab running VMs and Linux containers for Docker workloads, UiPath bots, and IIS web services. AdGuard Home blocks ads network-wide, Caddy reverse-proxies everything with internal DNS and automatic HTTPS, Tailscale secures remote access, and n8n ties the automations together.
