I am a University of Michigan graduate with a B.S.E. in Computer Engineering, with a career focus in DevOps administration and engineering. I'm originally from the Detroit area, but currently located in Swartz Creek, Michigan.My most recent area of focus was the design of an Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) system for AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). The goal of the project was to support consolidation of our AWS environments into a single account, by restricting users to modifying only their own team's resources.As the Senior DevOps Engineer, I researched and designed a tag-based IAM configuration, which referenced both resource and session tags as access conditions. This was combined with a strict requirement to tag every resource in the new account, and tags applied to the user's AWS session via SAML Attributes in Okta (our single sign-on solution). Access can be granted and revoked by updating the user's attributes in Okta - all within a single set of IAM policies for every engineer.Before that, I worked on a wide variety of projects - cross-account and cross-region backup and recovery for AWS, Linux user management across cloud instances, artifact repositories, GitHub and GitLab pipelines, Terraform module design, and many others.Since 2021, my wife and I are also homesteaders. She owns and cares for a dozen breeding rabbits, around 50 laying hens, and most recently five guinea fowl, plus a 3000 square foot garden. My main contribution has been construction, including learning some basic woodworking. I've built chicken tractors, raised garden beds, water systems for the livestock, electric fences, and a number of other random things around the farm.I'd love to talk shop about AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, or just general DevOps and Engineering practices.
