2017-2018
Manufacturing Laborer to IT Admin

While a full-time computer science student, I worked 20-30 hours per week at a steel manufacturing plant, Kim Manufacturing, slinging 100 LB boxes to pay the bills.  I had the opportunity to learn the entire manufacturing process and my curiosity led to me administering IT for the factory.

2018-2020
Founder of BizyLife

My time at Kim let me to discover the world of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software and Odoo.  I established BizyLife and began building out marketing materials including a YouTube channel that garnered nearly 40K views.  This led to several gigs, including a total ERP implementation for a geological consulting company, which allowed me to continue paying my way through school.

2018-2020
Founder of Honestvote

Inspired by winning 1st place for Best Blockchain hack and 3rd place overall at Princeton University's global hackathon for a revolutionary blockchain voting system, I decided to take the idea a step further.  I organized a team of 20+ students across 5 different universities to engineer a blockchain designed for voting with a unique consensus algorithm written in Golang.  We used Jira with a custom workflow to enforce acceptance criteria, held regular 12-hour hacking sessions, had a custom CRM designed to qualify all Universities in the United States by student count, docker nodes orchestrated in the cloud, and had a connected cross-platform web and mobile app that communicated with the blockchain.

2020
Graduated with BS in Computer Science

I graduated West Chester University Cum Laude with a BS in Computer Science and a CNSS/NSA Computer Security Certificate.  As a student at West Chester, I placed in two business competitions, two hackathons, and was elected Webmaster of the Computer Science Club and helped it grow to become the second largest club on campus.

2020-2024
Sr. NetSuite Product Manager

Having a unique background in the ERP space led to several job offers within the ERP space.  Ultimately, I accepted an offer from a NetSuite partner, Archer Insights.  While there, I grew into a Product Manager role, leading the development for all of the company's Life Science products which helped us solidify our focus and success in this sector.

2024-Present
Returned to BizyLife

Hoping to give a BizyLife another shot, I left Archer Insights after getting married in order to pursue BizyLife full-time.
