Summary

Competent and proficient in radio waves, cellular technologies, satellite communications, and 802.11 protocols. Familiar with cyber security practices and utilization for industry standards in a DevSecOps environment. Abreast to containerization and the benefits of a K8s cluster vs a Docker environment. I will never claim to everything and I am comfortable with being uncomfortable because adversity breeds innovation.
