Biggs

Building secure, scalable systems at the intersection of .NET, cloud architecture, and federal technology modernization. 12+ years turning complex requirements into resilient solutions.

Who I Am

I'm a Senior Software Developer with over twelve years of experience designing and delivering enterprise-grade applications across federal agencies, defense, healthcare, and private industry. I hold an active security clearance and specialize in the .NET ecosystem, cloud platforms (Azure & AWS), and modern architecture patterns that meet the rigorous compliance demands of government environments.

My trajectory is toward Solutions Architect and senior technology leadership — CTO and CIO-track roles where deep technical expertise meets strategic vision. I bring not just code, but the ability to bridge engineering execution with the business and mission outcomes that matter in high-stakes environments.
