Profile
About
A practitioner at the intersection of aviation and IT infrastructure.
Charter aviation professional with experience in revenue management, flight operations, capacity planning, pricing strategy, and aviation logistics. Combines commercial awareness with hands-on operational coordination, market analysis, contract follow-up, and practical problem-solving in time-critical environments.
Beyond commercial aviation, the same operational discipline extends to a self-hosted IT infrastructure practice — Linux, Proxmox virtualization, container platforms, networking and the operational tooling that keeps services reliable. Recent work has focused on automation and AI agent systems to shorten the distance between a human decision and the action it triggers.
I work best where the problem is real, the constraints are tight and the answer has to keep working at 03:00.
