// About

The engineer behind the systems

I work where infrastructure, security, and software meet. Most of my career has been keeping critical systems available and secure. I also write the Python, PowerShell, and SQL that automate the work, and I have led technical programs that connect those systems to the people who depend on them.

I am completing a Master of Science in Computer Science at Georgia Institue of Technology. I speak English, French, and Ewe.
