My Story

Originally from Phoenixville, PA, I'm an IT professional based out of the greater Philadelphia area. After high school, I attended Penn State University, where I majored in Information Sciences & Technology (IST). Penn State (as it does for many) holds a space near and dear to my heart. I am grateful to have supported the university's IFC/Panhellenic dance marathon (THON) in each of my years as an undergraduate student. I also loved my time supporting the College of IST as a student diplomat.

Returning to the Philly suburbs after college, I started my career as a professional software engineer. Shortly after, I adopted my first dog, Oreo, and met my lovely (now) wife, Audra. We now live together in the Philadelphia suburbs and have since adopted another four paws in the family, Mochi!

Outside of technology, I love sports and cheering on my Philadelphia teams (especially the Sixers and Eagles!). I also enjoy playing guitar, video games, and getting outside to explore nature. I recently picked up photography, and can't wait to share my work with the world as I improve!
