About Me.

I’m an engineering leader focused on building systems and durable teams at scale.

I care most about thoughtful systems, clear ownership, and organizations that operate what they build with high confidence and resilience.

Sentry

Senior Engineering Manager

Leading Site Reliability and Infrastructure Engineering at Sentry, aligning systems, teams, and metrics around real customer impact not internal proxies.

  • Bridging infrastructure and product facing reliability, not treating them as separate concerns.
  • Pushing engineering beyond surface-level metrics toward operational clarity and accountability.
  • Evolving systems and teams in place, same people, sharper focus, higher standards.
  • Shifting from reactive firefighting to intentional reliability engineering.

Google Next

Las Vegas
Google Next
I will be mostly attending talks this year, with my focus squarely on Google's AI platform offerings — particularly their managed services around Valkey and AlloyDB. Google Next is always a useful signal for where cloud infrastructure is heading, and I'm curious to see how their AI tooling intersects with reliability engineering at scale. As usual, I'll be spending time at the Sentry booth in between sessions. Stop by and say hi if you're around.

SREDay 2026

San Francisco
SRE Day
I'm presenting during one of the tracks on how the roles of SRE and developer are converging in modern incident response. As tooling has matured, the traditional boundary between infrastructure ownership and application-level debugging has blurred significantly. The talk draws from patterns we see at Sentry, where the fastest resolutions consistently come from engineers who can move fluidly between both layers. Come by and see how modern observability is reshaping what it means to be on-call.

The SRE & Developer Convergence in Modern Incident Response
"What happens when incident response requires both code level and infrastructure level understanding at once? Role boundaries start to blur."

SREcon25 Americas

Santa Clara
SRE Con
Primarily attending to help out at the Sentry booth and reconnect with colleagues in South Bay. There's a lot happening in the SRE world right now — AI-assisted operations, the ongoing evolution of platform engineering, and shifting definitions of what the SRE role even means at different scales. I've blocked time for several talks I've been looking forward to. If you're attending, reach out and let's find time to connect.
