About me

My IT background consists of working in multiple environments ranging from SaaS companies, universities, family owned businesses, tech startups, and now a nonprofit here at the foundation. I love that technology is constantly changing because it keeps me curious to learn of new advancements and to see how it can help make our lives and jobs a little easier. Aside from work, my main passion is music production. I also enjoy eating good food, coffee, binging good shows and movies on the couch, and trying to improve my chess game.

My work

I joined the Wikimedia Foundation in November 2020 as an IT Systems Specialist. My primary focus is optimizing IT workflows/processes and providing Tier 2-3 internal support.
