Cloud Security Architect | AI Automation Engineer | Founder of Coldchain Secure
I help teams build secure, scalable infrastructure with a touch of AI and a heavy dose of automation. My career started in audio engineering 🎛️ now I write Terraform, automate DevSecOps pipelines, and run hands-on cybersecurity workshops to help others break into the field.
- 🛡️ Staff DataOps Engineer @ Lore — building secure data infrastructure for AI-driven behavioral health
- 🧠 AI Compliance Automation — LangChain + Pydantic + RAG for policy enforcement
- ☁️ Infrastructure Refactoring — Terraform migrations and IAM hardening
- 🔓 Sacramento Cyber Security Club — leading hands-on CTF events and ethical hacking labs
- AI Ops & Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
- Advanced IAM with AWS Identity Center (SSO + SAML)
- Secure data access workflows for analytics pipelines
- Cross-functional leadership in fast-paced startups
- 🔐 Terraform Compliance Assistant — Automated IaC plan validator with live pricing + compliance drift detection.
- 🎯 SCSC CTF Platform — Dockerized infrastructure for running multi-tenant CTFs with subdomain isolation.

I’m open to:
- Guest speaking or panels (AI, DevSecOps, career switching)
- Mentorship & pair programming sessions
- Cloud automation collaborations
- Cybersecurity training & CTF design
- 🎛️ Former live sound engineer — still mixing tracks when I’m not deploying code
- 🧠 Learned DevOps by building things, breaking them, and fixing them better
- 💬 I believe hands-on learning beats certifications (but I collect both)
- 👨🏾🏫 I run a CTF club to help newcomers get real-world cyber experience
Let’s build something secure — and make it awesome.
