About Brian

Solutions architect and creative technologist bridging the gap between creative vision and technical execution

Building Systems That Scale

I'm a solutions architect and creative technologist with 15+ years building the systems that let creativity scale from live broadcast to cloud-based post. I bridge creative and engineering teams to deliver media supply chains, automation, and tooling that remove friction and unlock speed.

My approach combines deep technical expertise with an understanding of creative workflows, ensuring that infrastructure serves the creative process rather than constraining it. I've architected solutions for Fortune 500 companies, enabling teams to work faster, collaborate better, and scale their operations.
