I’m a Senior Systems Endpoint Engineer at Coursera, where I focus on securing and managing endpoints at scale across a global platform. I recently transitioned from supporting the U.S. Navy as a civilian, but my passion for serving both federal and non-federal spaces hasn’t gone anywhere — it just found a new home.
I’m the sole developer of the open-source project M.A.C.E. (Mac Advanced Compliance Editor), the maintainer of MOFA (Microsoft Overview Feed for Apple), and an active contributor to the mSCP government working group. My mission is simple: build tools for people like me — admins in the trenches — to make their lives easier and their environments more secure. We impact users more than most people realize. Our decisions determine whether Apple stays or goes, whether a system is secure or not, whether compliance is a burden or a baseline. So why shouldn’t it be easy for both us and the end user? That’s what drives everything I build.
With experience spanning higher education, government, and high-compliance environments, I build for every admin who's ever felt the weight of keeping Apple secure at scale.
Outside of work, I enjoy gaming, connecting with my community, and exploring Charleston, SC. I also have a deep love for outer space and hope to one day work with NASA or in a role that supports humanity’s exploration beyond Earth. It’s the nerd in me that yearns for the stars and believes they may one day be our next home.
My favorite languages for systems programming, software engineering, and data analysis.
My preferred technologies for front-end web development and component design.
My preferred technologies for back-end Apple mobile device management solutions.
My favorite tools for version control, code editing, and container orchestration.
My most trusted operating systems for system administration and cross-platform deployment.
My favorite open source projects I’ve contributed to or used in production environments.
Trusted tools I rely on for hardening, compliance, and endpoint protection.
My preferred platforms for cloud services, automation, and infrastructure management.
M.A.C.E. is a macOS app for Mac admins to easily create, document, and audit compliance baselines using NIST's mSCP 2.0 with visual rule editing and flexible management.
Check it out!I developed MOFA (Microsoft Overview Feed for Apple) using Vue.js and Python, hosted on GitHub Pages, to provide Mac administrators with automated, up-to-date feeds, tools, and direct download links for Microsoft Office apps on macOS.
Check it out!I built BOFA (Browser Overview Feed for Apple) with Vue.js and Python, hosted on GitHub Pages, to provide up-to-date browser feeds for Mac admins. It streamlines deployment with reliable XML, JSON, and YAML data.
Check it out!I designed a DISA STIG compliance script using Bash in Visual Studio Code to automate the enforcement and verification of required security settings. The script checks and applies macOS STIGs to ensure systems meet DISA compliance standards.
Check it out!I built CoCoLabs using Hugo and hosted it on GitHub Pages as a central hub for all my projects. The site organizes and showcases tools and resources I’ve developed for Mac admins and the open-source community.
Check it out!I share open-source tools on GitHub using Python, Bash, JavaScript, AppleScript, and HTML to support Mac admins and the tech community. While some work remains private due to my role, I contribute what I can to open-source efforts.
