Professional Profile

Systems Practitioner who diagnoses and resolves institutional, municipal, and physical blockages. Expert in transparency through data reconstruction and regulatory navigation. My work focuses on building verifiable, high-integrity systems that survive the exit of their architect.

Key Systemic Interventions

Civic Systems: Municipal Budget Reconstruction

Manually audited and reconstructed the 2010-2011 New Haven municipal budget using raw city data; exposed obscured debt liabilities exceeding $38,000 per household. Secured FOI ruling FIC 2009-014 to force provision of digital data.

Civic Systems: Operational Recovery (Emergency Infrastructure)

Predicted regulatory crackdown and stabilized a volunteer fire department facing shutdown due to documentation gaps. Corrected systemic failures to pass high-stakes state inspection.

Civic Systems: Governance Architecture (LOA)

Authored a 59-page rewrite of obsolete bylaws to resolve board power struggles and re-engineer the organization into a data-driven road maintenance utility.

Human Systems: Clinical Throughput Optimization

Replaced a stagnant, typewritten psychiatric bed-finding process with a digitized regional network, expanding the active database from 44 to 79 hospitals. Eliminated "divert" status and multi-day patient boarding.

Physical Systems: Asset Lifecycle & Construction

Solo-built two residential properties from foundation to finish, performing all structural masonry, MEP systems, and envelope restoration. Navigated multi-phase inspections to secure legal Certificates of Occupancy.
