Engineering leader with 25+ years of experience across software development, infrastructure, and IT leadership — including 15 years of hands-on software engineering spanning mobile, web, and cloud platforms. I combine deep technical fluency with a proven ability to lead teams, shape engineering culture, and align technology strategy to business outcomes.
Currently: Senior Software Engineer & Technical Lead at Kelly Services (April 2025 – Present), serving as architect and DevOps engineer across two high-impact enterprise platforms on the Enterprise Information Services team. Leading engineering on Project Spark — a next-generation client-facing requisition platform designed to streamline the full hiring lifecycle — and continuing to evolve OneTalent, Kelly's high-scale job search product targeting 50,000+ daily active users.
I'm known for embedding AI-driven workflows across the full development lifecycle — agentic coding tools, automated documentation pipelines, and AI-assisted architectural decision-making — to amplify small team output and accelerate delivery without sacrificing quality. At Kelly, I designed and implemented a multi-repo orchestration system using Claude Code, spearheaded an AI-powered automated code review system integrated with Azure DevOps, and championed a "small team, big output" model that enables lean teams to operate at architect-level velocity.
Prior to Kelly, I spent 8+ years as Consumer Product & Engineering Manager at Get Spiffy, LLC — driving the full lifecycle of a cross-platform consumer application from Appcelerator Titanium through Xamarin to Flutter, architecting AWS infrastructure, and leading hardware product development. That work contributed to three granted patents: the Easy Tread tire tread measurement system (US-20220164944-A1 & US-11699225-B2) and the Smart Tumbler automotive maintenance efficiency system (US-11911541-B1).
Earlier in my career I co-founded Re:Creative Studio, delivering mobile games and branded applications for clients including Michelin Aircraft Tires and Raycom Media / the ACC, and served as IT Director at Richard Petty Driving Experience for 15 years — overseeing enterprise infrastructure, custom reservations systems, and multi-site WAN deployments.
I'm open to Director of Engineering and senior technical leadership opportunities where I can drive engineering culture, embed AI-first development practices, and deliver high-impact platforms in fast-moving environments. Let's connect.
