Solutions Architect at Strategic Communications, supporting federal and SLED clients across cloud procurement, migration, and modernization through a 170+ partner ecosystem. I lead product development for Justice and Public Safety clients - architecting CJIS-compliant AWS GovCloud solutions for law enforcement agencies - and drive agentic engineering adoption across the organization. Alongside that I run Nobler Works (see below).
Before this I spent 3.5 years as a Solutions Architect at AWS (Quarterly All-Star award, top 1% of field) working with public sector, federal partners, and the Intelligence Community, where I drove early RAG enablement on SageMaker/OpenSearch, led Bedrock and SageMaker workshops, and co-published two AWS technical blogs. I hold 18 multi-cloud certifications across AWS, GCP, and Azure - part of 60 total certifications and accreditations - with hands-on experience building production RAG and agentic systems, designing scalable infrastructure, and leading technical engagements from scoping through delivery.

My cofounder and I bootstrapped Nobler Works to profitability within 3 months - no investors, no patrons, no sponsors - and have since shipped 10+ products across SaaS, B2B growth tools, and open-source intelligence. We do product development, custom solutions, automation, analytics, observability, cloud cost optimization, and IP transfer for startups and commercial clients, and we treat clients as partners: revenue-sharing offerings over pure vendor work.
Platforms we architected, built, and operate in partnership with domain experts - they bring the audience and the method, we bring the product. Revenue-sharing, not vendor work.

Nobler Works takes on a small number of engagements at a time. We're a fit if you need:
- An AI product built and shipped - agentic systems, RAG, LLM-backed SaaS, from scoping to production
- Cloud architecture and modernization - AWS/GCP/Azure, IaC, migrations, Well-Architected reviews
- Public sector delivery - GovCloud, CJIS/FedRAMP-aligned architecture, contract vehicle support
- Cost, observability, and cleanup - cloud cost optimization, monitoring, and IP transfer on the way out
We also build revenue-share platforms with domain experts who have an audience and a method but no product. If that's you, the three platforms above started exactly that way.
