Technical Product & Program Manager | Systems Builder | Event and Community Leadership

I build operational systems for complex environments that teams can actually run.

I work where product, operations, community, and technology overlap: turning ambiguous cross-functional needs into requirements, workflows, governance, and delivery systems.

My work produces repeatable operating models: roadmaps with real sequencing, staff-adopted tooling, shared decision surfaces, and delivery systems that hold up after the first push is over.

  • Built event operations tooling supporting 100+ VR activations, 54K+ players, and 76K+ game sessions since 2018.
  • Built and operate TEST Squadron Discord systems for a 40K-member Discord ecosystem tied to a 24K-member Star Citizen organization.
  • Credited on 45+ Ubisoft game releases across Customer/Technical Support, Marketing, and Public Relations.
  • Reduced overall Ubisoft e-commerce support ticket volume by 30% through refund-flow modernization.
  • 15+ years of military service including ATC and LZSO work where timelines are tight and execution has to stay calm.

Where I Tend To Help

I am at my best when the work is important, a little tangled, and in need of someone who can make the path feel doable.

Program momentum

Technical program leadership

I am useful when ambiguous cross-functional needs must become clear requirements, user stories, release plans, and supportable delivery systems.

Day-to-day systems

Operational systems design

I turn tribal knowledge, handoffs, and recurring pain points into field-tested workflows with clear ownership, operating cadence, and enough structure that no single person has to carry it.

Useful tooling

Technical enablement and automation

When a workflow is repetitive or high-friction, I look for the right mix of tooling, automation, AI assistance, and human judgment to make it calmer and more useful.

How I Usually Approach the Work

A short version of how I move from fuzzy problem to shared plan, useful system, and cleaner handoff.

  1. Lead with outcomes before moving resources, process, or tooling.

  2. Build operating systems other people can run, not hero-dependent one-off fixes.

  3. Create clarity, ownership, and momentum across teams, stakeholders, and communities.

How I Add Value

Event operations, program management, community systems, and the tools that enable execution.

Clarify

Event Management

I design and lead live-event operations with clear roles, staffing models, runbooks, and real-time decision paths.

Coordinate

Operating Systems

I turn scattered work into durable processes with visibility, cadence, accountability, and room to scale.

Systemize

Leadership Under Pressure

Military service and years of event, gaming, and community leadership shaped how I lead through ambiguity and pressure.

The work clusters around four lanes

The projects on this site are broad, but they share a practical center: leading complex work, building operational systems, and helping groups execute under real constraints.

01

Event operations systems

Offline-first platforms, check-in tooling, staff visibility, and real-time decision support built for live events where the internet is unreliable and errors have consequences.

02

Community platforms and governance

Discord bot systems, verification workflows, role management, analytics, and governance design for large-scale communities that need to run without constant manual intervention.

03

People and live event leadership

Director-level ownership across volunteer coordinators, vendors, and stakeholders when schedules are live, people are moving, and someone has to hold the operating picture.

04

Military operations under pressure

ATC, landing zone safety, and expeditionary airfield operations built the execution habits that carry into every high-stakes environment: calm, systematic, and hazard-aware.

Why this background fits messy work

My background is broad on purpose. Military service taught me how to lead under pressure, Ubisoft taught me how large organizations actually move work, and community and event systems gave me places to keep building beyond formal job boundaries.

That mix is why I tend to operate well above a narrow title line. I am comfortable in the strategy layer, the execution layer, and the system-design layer at the same time, especially when multiple projects are moving at once.

If you want the fuller version, the About page explains where that operating style came from and why I keep getting pulled toward systems that need to be clarified, rebuilt, or scaled.
