I have a passion for building robust, secure, and highly available database systems. I thrive at the intersection of data, automation, and network security — designing solutions that streamline operations and maximize uptime. Currently, I work as a Database Administrator Intern for Fordham’s IT team, where I design and implement MySQL databases, develop Python and PowerShell scripts for system automation, and configure high-availability clusters using MariaDB and Galera. My work has included everything from Active Directory integrations for thousands of users to building custom inventory and audit tools for complex firewall infrastructures.
