I’m a Smart Home ninja with over a decade of experience in disaster preparedness and emergency response, working to bring order to chaos, using leadership, technology, and strategic thinking to solve real-world problems in high-stakes environments. My journey has taken me from coordinating large-scale disaster relief efforts to optimizing home automation for everyday efficiency. I specialize in turning “uh-oh” into “under control” and making sure the lights don’t flicker like a horror movie, I thrive on problem-solving under pressure. When the world throws curveballs, I automate, adapt, and make sure there’s always a backup plan (and a backup for the backup).
