About

I’m a Senior Technical Program Manager at Google specializing in cloud delivery, network infrastructure, AI-driven process optimization, and enterprise program governance. My focus is driving clarity, execution, and operational excellence across large-scale, mission-critical environments. My background spans Big Tech (Google, Amazon), Big Four consulting (Deloitte), and high-growth startups. I’ve led end-to-end data center builds, cloud migrations, global systems deployments, cybersecurity initiatives, and enterprise modernization efforts. I’m passionate about building the future of infrastructure and enabling teams to deliver reliably at scale. Beyond tech, I’m deeply invested in wealth creation, community leadership, and elevating underrepresented voices. As a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., I’m committed to mentorship, service, and helping others rise — especially in Atlanta’s growing tech ecosystem. Whether it’s scaling systems, building leaders, or creating long-term financial impact, my mission is simple: Connect. Build. Elevate. Execute.
