About

I am a senior technology leader, front-end architect, and researcher with over 18 years of experience engineering large-scale digital platforms and enterprise software systems. I currently serve as Senior Software Engineer III and Principal UI Architect at Castlight Health (now part of apree health), where I lead front-end engineering initiatives for enterprise digital health platforms serving millions of users.

Throughout my career, I have contributed to transformative technology initiatives at globally recognized organizations including Google, Target, and Castlight Health. My work has supported platforms serving hundreds of millions of users and large-scale commercial ecosystems.

I played a key engineering role in Curelight, a vaccine-finder platform integrated with Vaccines.gov and associated public health initiatives that supported more than 100 million users during the COVID-19 pandemic response. My contributions focused on scalable front-end architecture, real-time user experiences, and high-performance digital systems.

At Google, I contributed to engineering initiatives across products including Google Maps, Google My Business, Stadia, Chromecast, and gTech Ads, and served as a Certified Google JavaScript Code Reviewer. At Target, I contributed to large-scale front-end modernization initiatives supporting major e-commerce platform transformation efforts.

In addition to my industry leadership, I actively conduct and publish research in Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, Cybersecurity, Blockchain Security, and Explainable AI. My scholarly work is indexed in Scopus and connected through ORCID. I have also served as a peer reviewer and judge for international IEEE conferences and research publications.

I am an IEEE Senior Member, IETE Fellow, Sigma Xi Associate Member, and member of NSPE. My professional interests include scalable system architecture, AI-driven platforms, healthcare technology, accessibility engineering, cybersecurity, and modern front-end systems.
