Infrastructure as code. Access as code. Data contracts as code. And now the agents that write it all, also as code.
I’m the Enterprise Semantic Layer Architect at T-Mobile, and I practice agentic engineering in production: AI agents do real platform work, inside the same guardrails as people.
Current focus (T-Mobile, Enterprise Data COE):
- Semantic layer architecture on Microsoft Fabric, unifying Databricks, Snowflake, and on-prem platforms
- Agentic engineering: Claude Code & Codex agent harnesses, AI-assisted & automated data engineering
- Identity & access management: least privilege, row-level security, service principals, OAuth governance at enterprise scale
- Config-as-code: YAML registries, Terraform, Azure DevOps/GitLab CI/CD, Entra ID provisioning automation
- Data contracts (ODCS), automated data quality, and contract-driven observability
Before this:
- Co-founded T-Mobile’s CX Lab and built Device Matrix, a remote device testing and CI/CD platform that became mission-critical during COVID-19; replaced third-party tooling with open source to save over $1M a year
- Ph.D. in computer science, Florida State: mobile security and privacy research (USENIX Security 2015, ACM CODASPY, ACSAC)
- Named inventor on 35 granted US patents across testing, wireless networks, machine learning, voice interfaces, and security
Off the clock: 3D printing, laser cutting, home automation, and mountain biking in the PNW.
