In April 2016 I transitioned to become the manager of the CUDA Installer team at NVIDIA. My team focuses on automation of package create and release management. Over the years we have expanded the formats available from RPM, Debian, Runfile, and Windows to include Containers, Python Wheels, Conda Packages, and more.Behind the scenes we have worked on tech that allows internal teams to integrate their components into existing or new products, a critical feature that has allowed our software deliverables to scale.

During this time I led the installer initiative for CUDA at NVIDIA bringing online new formats such as RPM and Debian, improving existing solutions to the Windows and Linux Runfile, and working with other internal teams to add new components to the CUDA toolkit.Early 2016 I also worked with product teams to redesign what would later become the DGX Base OS for the DGX product, a challenging project with many requirements from as many teams.In April 2016 I become Engineering Manager of the CUDA Installer team.

Focused on unit testing and its supporting architecture. I have been using Microsoft Detours to support device related testing that would otherwise modify the host system.In addition, I have managed the code port from VCBuild to MSBuild to support future technologies.From May 2011 to August 2011 I was studying at the University of Waterloo.
