I design infrastructure for how it behaves in reality — under load, under failure, and under operational constraints.
My career spans over seven years operating and stabilizing complex enterprise environments across media, technology, and high-pressure production teams. In roles at Team Liquid, Stagwell, and Creative Artists Agency, I served as a senior escalation point responsible for keeping systems reliable, secure, and predictable while supporting executive users and globally distributed teams.
That experience shaped my core belief: resilience is engineered, not improvised.
Operational Philosophy
I don’t just build systems — I design for longevity, clarity, and failure tolerance.
- • Designing fault domains before deploying workloads
- • Treating identity and network boundaries as foundational controls
- • Favoring explicit trust and default-deny over convenience
- • Making observability and documentation first-class components
- • Automating to reduce cognitive load, not just manual effort
These principles were forged in enterprise environments where outages or ambiguity had immediate consequences.

The Alliance Holocron
The Alliance Holocron is a continuation of how I’ve always approached systems — not a hobby lab, but a documented, production-style environment.
Within it, I design and operate a multi-node, high-availability infrastructure where I validate architectural decisions around fault isolation, network segmentation, identity control, and telemetry. Every component is documented with intent, mirroring the standards I followed in enterprise roles.
