About Me

This is where everything I write comes from.

I’ve been the difficult employee. I’ve worked under managers who used accountability as cover for blame. I’ve handed off work with a checklist and watched it still come back wrong.

Not a clean progression. A series of moments that forced me to figure out what I actually believed about leadership.

What I believe: reliability matters more than complexity. Standards live in what you reinforce, not what you document. Accountability without coaching is just judgment. And the help desk isn’t entry-level IT — it’s where identity, access, and trust intersect every single day.

Where This Comes From

Support Desk Manager
2022 – Present

This is where most of my thinking around leadership and operations took shape.

I manage the support desk — ticket flow, onboarding, equipment, purchasing, and the day-to-day coordination that keeps things moving.

The biggest lesson from this role: reliability matters more than complexity. Support teams don’t break because the technology is hard. They break when communication falls apart and details slip through the cracks.

My focus is clear expectations, closed loops, and consistent execution — turning a reactive help desk into something the organization actually relies on.

2015 – 2022

This is where I learned the fundamentals.

Day-to-day IT operations, infrastructure reliability, escalations, and the systems that keep an organization running. This is where I started to understand that good support is about consistency, not heroics.

It’s not just about moving tickets — it’s about understanding how the organization actually works and building the reliability that earns trust over time.

Working at Qualcomm was my first look at enterprise IT at real scale — structured processes, clear procedures, and the discipline that comes with operating in a large organization. It shaped how I think about consistency and documentation.
