About Me

Infrastructure/software engineer with a Computer Science background, working across enterprise infrastructure, VDI/virtualization, network operations, automation, and web/backend software. My strongest pattern is converting messy operational environments into repeatable architecture, documentation, automation, and software workflows.

Since May 2026, working with the VDI team at SK AX USA, supporting enterprise VDI build planning and implementation preparation across SKBA Commerce and Hyundai JV while bridging virtual desktop services, server operations, identity, secure remote access, and cross-functional infrastructure handoff.

Before the VDI transition, worked as an Infrastructure Network Engineer from Oct 2025 to Apr 2026 at SKBA Commerce, and earlier delivered the Ford BlueOval Andon network with 99.99% uptime and sub-50ms latency. I keep those production infrastructure metrics in the experience section while presenting this site as a broader portfolio of infrastructure and software work.

Prior software engineering experience at Cogent Infotech (Spring, microservices, CI/CD) and 3D Access Industries (React, NestJS, ERP systems). I am especially interested in reliable systems, automation, infrastructure tooling, and the software that keeps platforms understandable and maintainable.
