Cover image for THE PROBLEM The organization carried 600
THE PROBLEM The organization carried 600 admin accounts with unreviewed entitlements. JML processes ran manually. New hire provisioning averaged 72 hours from request to access. Offboarding gaps left orphaned accounts active in production systems. WHAT WE DID ▪  Conducted full identity inventory across all AD domains and connected SaaS platforms. ▪  Designed a SAML 2.0 JIT provisioning pipeline tied to HR system joiner events. ▪  Validated the pipeline in a 600-user simulated Active Directory forest on Windows Server 2025. ▪  Built automated deprovisioning triggers for leaver events, removing manual offboarding steps. ▪  Delivered a Zero Touch onboarding architecture with IT team runbook for ongoing operations. THE RESULTS ▪  JML provisioning time: reduced from 72 hours to Zero Touch automated delivery. ▪  IT support ticket volume: 55% reduction within 60 days of architecture deployment. ▪  Admin account review: 600 accounts audited and remediated. ▪  Orphaned account risk: eliminated via automated leaver event triggers. 55% Reduction in IT support tickets within 60 days

I recently helped a client overhaul their small business IT stack. The work included cleaning up their Active Directory, tightening security, reorganizing shared drives, and improving their onboarding workflow. I also introduced some lightweight automation to reduce repetitive tasks and make day to day support easier. It has been rewarding to see how a few well planned changes can remove friction for an entire team.

I’m in the middle of a Microsoft 365 migration for a small business client. This project includes user onboarding, email and file migration, policy cleanup, and security upgrades like MFA and conditional access. I’m also standardizing their device setup and rolling out clear documentation so the team can work more efficiently once everything is moved. It has been a great opportunity to combine hands-on support with process improvement.

I’m also working on a personal project called Doom With a Broom, a small game I am building as both a practice piece and a portfolio project. The player takes on the role of a janitor who wakes up from a nap in his favorite broom closet only to discover that the ship has been overrun by aliens and rogue robots. Armed with his trusty mop, he has to fight his way to the docking bay and escape. Right now the game is in a text based phase while I focus on building solid mechanics. I have the basic framework in place, including a simple UI, player and enemy classes, combat logic, and button driven events that log action messages. Phase two will introduce graphics and a more polished interface as I continue to iterate on the design.
