01 — About

A bit
about me.

I'm a telecommunications professional with a passion for building physical networks that are optimized, diverse, and resilient.

I've spent my 30 year career helping to build products, networks and data centers across the United States.

My other interests include investing, technology, and music. I've been playing guitar for longer than I've been building networks.
