I’m a Principal Engineer at T-Mobile with over 15 years of experience in national spectrum strategy, RAN planning, and advanced wireless systems. My work focuses on driving network efficiency and innovation through data-driven spectrum analytics, AI/ML-based capacity modeling, and long-term planning across 4G, 5G, and emerging 6G technologies.Throughout my career, I’ve contributed to some of the most transformative projects in the U.S. wireless industry — from leading national spectrum analytics and planning initiatives at T-Mobile to architecting Sprint’s Spark Tri-Band Strategy and ensuring FAA C-Band compliance. My technical leadership has influenced multi-billion-dollar network investments, accelerated nationwide rollouts, and improved connectivity for millions of users. Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at George Mason University, my research explores AI/ML applications for O-RAN and next-generation wireless optimization.
