I'm a hands-on Workflow Automation Engineer with an operations background in venue operations and growth. I bridge business and engineering to design robust, reusable workflows with retries and rollback, and I write clear runbooks and docs that teams actually use. I'm fluent in REST APIs, webhooks, OAuth 2, JSON, and JavaScript/Python across non-coded nodes, and I enjoy turning real-world processes into maintainable automation. I'm comfortable mapping end-to-end workflows, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and delivering solutions that scale.
