01 / ABOUT
The person behind
the projects.
I like understanding how things work.
Then making them work better.
My work sits at the intersection of people, information, and technology. At Edinburg CISD, I lead PEIMS—the Public Education Information Management System—helping turn complex reporting requirements into clear, dependable processes for our district.
Outside that work, I build websites, business tools, and projects of my own. Whether I’m writing a data audit or developing a new product, I’m drawn to the same question: how can this make someone’s day easier?
