Bio

I’m a Python-focused automation engineer who turns manual, error-prone workflows into reliable systems. My work centers on practical tools for infrastructure teams—automating storage cleanup and monitoring, streamlining Cisco zoning, integrating with enterprise services, and building dashboards that deliver real value.

My guiding principle is simple: ship tools that save people time, reduce risk, and, whenever possible, make the work a little more enjoyable.

What I Bring
  • Python Automation: API integrations, data processing with Pandas, storage cleanup workflows, and CLI/utility scripts.
  • Infrastructure Expertise: NetApp, PowerMax, and Infinidat storage; Cisco MDS zoning automation.
  • Observability & Reporting: Splunk Dashboard Studio and alerting pipelines that surface meaningful signals.
  • Service Integration: ServiceNow automation for tickets, notifications, and incident workflows.
  • Team Practices: Clear naming, modular functions, reusable code, and documentation that explains the “why.”
