Broadcom | 2024 IBM Rising Champion | Client Services Technical Consultant - z/OS Mainframe AIOps & Automation
I am a dedicated mainframer currently working on supporting large-scale migrations and conversions to Broadcom's automation product: OPS/MVS. I help organizations seamlessly adopt and integrate advanced mainframe automation solutions. I collaborate closely with clients, tackling unique challenges and developing strategic adoption roadmaps tailored to their needs.
I grew up in New York and now live in San Diego, California, blending East Coast determination with West Coast creativity. Over the course of my career, I've held roles as a Db2 Database Administrator and Storage and System Support Engineer, which provided me with a strong technical foundation and deep understanding of enterprise-level systems.
I'm passionate about mainframe education and mentoring, sharing knowledge with the community, and speaking at conferences to inspire others about the future of mainframe technology. I believe in continuous learning and enjoy connecting with industry professionals to drive innovation and growth.
