Systems. Teams. Outcomes.

At iSeatz, I put that philosophy into practice—leading distributed mobile teams delivering the Amex Travel App™ and scaling the $9B+ loyalty and rewards platform behind American Express Card Member experiences.

I focus on systems that support travel discovery and card member benefits while maintaining strict compliance and reliability standards. I partner with Amex product and engineering leaders to align architecture, delivery velocity, and long-term business outcomes.

We executed a U.S. bank migration with zero downtime—one of more than 90 production releases my teams delivered for Dayforce Wallet, a real-time earned-wage-access platform that processed over $7B in transactions for 860K+ users.

I led backend, mobile, and QA teams across the U.S., Canada, and India—balancing speed with reliability on a platform where downtime wasn’t an option. We cut fraud by 82% through ML-powered detection and stronger SDLC controls. I built frameworks that let teams move fast without breaking trust and was twice nominated for the President’s Circle Award for results and leadership growth.

I led mobile engineering for Quore, a hospitality operations platform serving 81K+ daily users across 7,300+ properties in 50 countries. My teams delivered iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) apps with a 99.98% crash-free rate.

We accelerated feature delivery by 26% through strategic refactoring, CI/CD automation, and QA process improvements, while cutting the bug backlog by 42% through data-driven prioritization. I also mentored two engineers who advanced into senior leadership roles—proof that building teams matters as much as building systems.

As an independent consultant, I built and modernized mobile platforms for enterprise and nonprofit clients—pairing custom builds with reusable architecture to deliver faster without losing precision.

One engagement produced 36 white-labeled deployments from six shared codebases, cutting release cycles by 67% and improving maintainability across fintech, nonprofit, and education sectors. Another modernized donation platforms for a major nonprofit, increasing giving by 32% and engagement by 47%.

Across 17 product roadmaps, I partnered with executives to align design, engineering, and go-to-market strategy—turning technical execution into business momentum. I architect reusable systems that scale impact across industries.

I directed secure IT operations and mission-critical networks supporting Special Forces deployments worldwide, including the Gulf War. Leading teams of up to 39 members, I maintained 99.998% uptime for classified systems and earned multiple Meritorious Service Medals.

Those years taught me precision, discipline, and calm under pressure—lessons that still guide how I lead engineering teams today. Earning the Ranger Tab and Master Parachutist Badge reinforced a principle I still live by: reliability isn’t optional. It’s leadership in practice.
