About Me


Software engineer with 10+ years of analytical experience. My civilian career and military history reflect a dedicated work ethic, attention to detail, and desire for continuous learning. Originally from Hawaii, I have a laid back, island disposition and multi-cultural worldview.

Work aside, I'm an avid reader and Star Wars/Harry Potter/Game of Thrones enthusiast. I'm currently reading The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell.
