Executive Data Leadership
Principal advisor for enterprise data management, responsible data culture, discoverability, accessibility, and the use of data as a strategic asset for mission outcomes.
Executive presence. Builder credibility.
I turn enterprise data, AI, and technology strategy into accountable mission outcomes.
I am the Chief Data Officer for the DHS OCIO, advising department leadership on enterprise data, AI, and mission technology. Before that, I spent years as a product engineer, architect, and delivery lead building software across financial services, pharmaceuticals, publishing, games, fashion, and government.

Most of the strongest signal in my GitHub history is private. This site intentionally describes the shape of the work, not proprietary implementation details.

Operating Style
How I tend to work
Executive without disappearing from the work
I can brief leadership, align stakeholders, and still read the stack trace, review the architecture, or build the proof-of-concept.
Practical systems over theater
The most useful technology work is usually disciplined: clear ownership, boring deployment paths, explicit risks, and recovery plans that work when people are tired.
Data as a mission asset
Data programs only matter when they change decisions, reduce friction, improve accountability, and make the right thing easier to do.
Public Work
Selected public artifacts
Most repos are private, but these public repositories provide a few visible anchors for the older and open-source side of the portfolio.
