I develop APIs for First National Bank of Omaha. I also work alongside our Innovation & Disruption team.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and pets. A lifelong hobbyist, my time is always filled with something interesting.

I have been lucky to experience many areas in financial technology before currently settling in development. I'm thankful for the insight that it has provided me.
Design and implement API endpoints based off requests from business unit to enable partner integration with financial services. Consult with team for work prioritization and desired implementation steps. Maintain multi-level environment to connect external partners with back-end, core services. Construct API contract and business logic for multiple external partners Manage semi-automated release pipeline generation, validate production applications Provide support and documentation for Quality Assurance and Production testing
Developed API for mobile application consumption. Worked in a peer-pairing environment to allow for code and standard improvement. Designed new endpoints in a multi-tier setting for code-sharing with additional teams. Managed code base for development, testing and production implementations. Mock new API endpoints, implement with new data structure and reconcile with QA to test changes Implement changes on a bi-weekly basis, publishing pipelines with updated code Assist in troubleshooting of API responses from production mobile applications Participate in recurring team retroactive and peer-review sessions
Refined and maintained a stable transaction authorizations platform. Justified code additions and changes for efficiency and long-term viability. Provided insight into business practices using SQL, SSRS and SSIS packages. Participated in system testing, implementation and validation. Developed SSIS packages and coordinated testing with SQL team to improve data and file processing Validated Fraud Policy rules to decline fraudulent transactions when appropriate Modified database processes for bank-wide initiative to contact customers with real-time fraud alerts Provided insight into database structure and processing for project improvements
Utilized SQL to review and analyze delinquent portfolio to determine necessary changes. Presented findings and recommendations for changes to be implemented. Reported on portfolio and forecasted yearly losses on a monthly and weekly basis. Created and validated scripts for process improvement and compliance. Developed SQL scripts that lessened server run-time from three hours to six minutes after validating scripts to find previous processes were not correctly identifying accounts Delivered consistent delinquency and portfolio loss forecasts Created delinquency forecasts for operations to manage toward Sponsored professional communication with co-workers to expedite project resolution Evaluated Google Suite as a Google Guide prior to complete business conversion Successfully transitioned from World’s Foremost Bank to Capital One
