Profile

About

Full-stack systems work means understanding the layer you are changing and the layers it depends on.

I am studying Information Technology at George Mason University with a concentration in Computational Platforms and Infrastructure.

My practical work spans hardware support, software delivery, deployment, maintenance, AI-assisted development, Codex and Claude Code workflows, Git/GitHub collaboration, AI automation, AI code review, endpoint setup, home lab administration, self-hosted services, OpenWrt networking, and recovery planning.

I am seeking a full-stack systems, AI engineering, cloud infrastructure, server support, or technical operations role where reliable systems and clear engineering workflows matter.

Work

Experience

Support, operations, classroom technology, and small-business technical logistics.

January 2021

Instructor

Mt. Kim Martial Arts · Vienna, VA

Supported instruction, daily operations, studio administration, and technical logistics in a small business environment.

  • Supported instruction, operations, and studio administration under the headmaster.
  • Reworked supply inventory and consolidation practices to reduce daily friction.
  • Instructed and supervised classes with attention to structure, safety, and pacing.
  • Integrated basic networking and cybersecurity practices into business operations.
  • Supported online class logistics during COVID-19 lockdowns.
June 2018

Student IT Assistant

James Madison High School · Vienna, VA

Assisted campus technology support across hardware maintenance, classroom deployment, imaging, and asset records.

  • Supported the head of IT on campus hardware and support tasks.
  • Performed laptop and desktop upgrades, setup, imaging, and routine maintenance.
  • Assisted classroom TV standardization and deployment across multiple rooms.
  • Organized school technology hardware and maintained inventory records.
  • Applied and removed asset tags for equipment tracking and lifecycle records.

Build

Projects

Self-directed work across hardware, software, deployment, maintenance, automation, and AI tooling.

Kōdō Code

Creator and Maintainer

Open-source agentic coding tool that moves project work through Ask, Plan, Code, and Review modes.

  • Built structured LLM workflows for requirements, architecture, implementation, and AI-assisted code review.
  • Designed the tool around practical agentic coding patterns used with Codex, Claude Code, Git, and GitHub.
  • Own product design, releases, documentation, automations, and the public project site.

Full-Stack Systems Practice

Concrete examples across hardware, software, deployment, maintenance, automation, and AI tooling.

  • Hardware: maintained endpoints, server hardware, asset records, and storage recovery plans.
  • Software: built Kōdō Code and deployed public web projects with product-oriented implementation habits.
  • Deployment: shipped Cloudflare Pages projects, Docker workloads, public docs, and release-ready artifacts.
  • Maintenance: operated Linux services, OpenWrt networking, self-hosted workloads, and troubleshooting routines.
  • Automation and AI tooling: use Codex, Claude Code, GitHub, agent workflows, and AI-assisted review to plan, build, inspect, and refine changes.

Homelab & Infrastructure

Self-managed server and networking environment used for Linux services, Docker workloads, and practical troubleshooting.

  • Maintain a small server rack with OpenWrt network infrastructure.
  • Operate self-hosted media, utility, and internal tooling workloads in Docker containers.
  • Completed a safe data migration during an active hard-drive failure.

AI Automation & Review Workflows

Applied AI tooling practice using Codex, Claude Code, GitHub workflows, and review automation to plan, build, inspect, and refine software changes.

  • Use AI coding agents to turn requirements into plans, patches, verification steps, and review feedback.
  • Apply Git and GitHub workflows to keep AI-generated changes inspectable, reversible, and reviewable.
  • Build small automations that connect LLM assistance with practical development and operations tasks.

Selected Web Work

Public Cloudflare Pages projects used to practice UI implementation, hosting, and delivery habits.

  • Published focused frontend projects with separate live endpoints.
  • Used lightweight deployments to test interface polish, product framing, and release discipline.
