As a dedicated father of four, I artfully attempt to juggle the dynamic symphony of family life with the harmonious tunes of my euphonium. When I'm not orchestrating IT solutions as a Telecommunications Specialist for the US Air Force, you'll find me diving into the exhilarating realms of video games or serving up a storm on the padel tennis court. Well, not really - I kinda suck, but I sure love it! A devout though highly unorthodox member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I blend faith with function, always seeking to support, uplift, and inspire. Currently, I'm navigating the exciting world of Python and Javascript, adding coding to my repertoire of skills. In a nutshell, I'm a Network Engineer by trade, a lifelong learner at heart, and a family man always.

My current position here in Aviano, Italy. I provide telecommunications expertise and training for airmen. Mostly radio, satellite, and networking.
My last position, I led a team of 10 in providing exceptional IT support for the Carlsbad Field Office of the Department of Energy.
I worked in the oil fields managing dozens of towers and hundreds of individual pads, assuring SCADA and other network traffic safely traveled from the field to headquarters utilizing radio, copper, fiber, and some satellite communications infrastructure.
