I’m an Automation Specialist with over four years of hands-on experience designing, upgrading, and commissioning Emerson DeltaV distributed control systems across oil & gas, pulp and paper, pharmaceutical, and food & beverage facilities. My background spans the full project lifecycle—from front-end system design and hardware specification to logic development, virtualization, startup, and long-term operational support.
I specialize in DeltaV migrations, system expansions, and modernization efforts, including legacy PLC conversions, alarm rationalization, advanced control logic, and HMI development. I’ve led and supported complex projects both onshore and offshore, frequently serving as a commissioning or technical lead to deliver systems safely, on schedule, and with zero recordable incidents.
In addition to DeltaV, I bring strong experience with ControlLogix PLCs, industrial networking (Modbus, Ethernet/IP, OPC UA), virtualization platforms (VMware, Hyper-V), and control system cybersecurity. I’m known for my ability to troubleshoot complex control, networking, and instrumentation issues under tight timelines while maintaining clear communication with operations, engineering, and vendors.
I take pride in building reliable, operator-focused control systems that improve safety, efficiency, and long-term maintainability—and I’m motivated by solving hard problems in demanding industrial environments.
