Taking AI workloads to production in regulated environments with Amazon Bedrock, AgentCore, and Step Functions, with the guardrails auditors expect.
Cloud & Agentic AI Architect · Regulated Federal & Financial Services · AWS Professional Services
I take regulated federal and financial services organizations from their first cloud account to production agentic AI. I set architecture direction across six concurrent programs at AWS, redirect the decisions that would miss an authorization window, and turn what works into platforms and patterns the whole practice reuses.
Hi, I'm Matt. I like all things Cloud, AI, UNIX, network architecture, and automation. I've lived in the Pittsburgh area my whole life, but I love to travel — especially to Miami, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles.
I worked for Apple in college and I'm a complete Apple geek as a result. I share my home with three Australian Shepherds (yes, they're as crazy as the stereotype). On weekends you can usually find me on a lake — the guy on the jet ski going way faster than anyone probably should.
I've been keeping it cloudy since 2017, and I'm a Consumer Electronics Show (CES) alum for '12, '13, '15, '16, and '17.
