cloud engineer now building ai infrastructure.

Denison University. BA Computer Science and BA Global Commerce, Middle East / North Africa concentration.
Started at Maven Wave as a Cloud Analyst. Maven Wave and Eviden were both acquired by Atos, where I'm now a Cloud Operations Engineer responsible for Azure infrastructure for enterprise clients. Expanding focus into AI agent systems and infrastructure.
I focus on infrastructure for local-first computing and personal ownership. The pattern I keep coming back to: software that structurally cannot betray its users beats software that promises it won't.
Two areas I'm working on: AI tools to augment thinking, not capture it, and verifiable crypto rails where exit is cheaper than voice.
Chris Dixon's frame is one I find useful: there's a casino side of crypto (speculation and trading) and a computer side (protocols, ownership, infrastructure). I am interested in the computer side.
