About

I’m a DevOps engineer based in Edmonton, Alberta, with a passion for functional programming, declarative infrastructure management, and tools like NixOS and Kubernetes.

My background extends beyond DevOps into the world of audio and music technology, where I’ve worked with digital signal processing in JUCE and Max/MSP, explored livestreaming setups, and delved into interactive music-making and sound design.

When I’m not writing Terraform or breaking production, you’ll find me expanding my homelab, playing music, or swimming freestyle.
