About Me

Hello! I'm a software engineer specializing in platform infrastructure, service reliability, and developer tooling. My work focuses on building scalable systems, improving operational readiness, and enabling teams to ship with confidence.

Currently, I'm a Software Engineer II at Microsoft, where I work on Microsoft Graph platform services including Graph Bicep, Graph Logs, and ARM integration infrastructure.

I hold graduate degrees in Advanced Computing and Electrical & Computer Engineering from Morgan State University.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

• C#
• TypeScript
• PowerShell
• Bicep
• Microsoft Azure
• KQL
