IT Operations Engineer in New York with 7+ years running identity, access, and endpoint platforms at scale. Right now I run Okta IAM for 1,500+ identities and a 1,500+ device macOS fleet.
I treat IT like infrastructure: declarative config, version control, and automation instead of manual clicks. Outside of work, I run a self-hosted homelab that I can rebuild from scratch with a runbook.
