Riley’s interest in technology started in childhood, when he was the friend setting up the servers that kept everyone connected for late-night gaming sessions. That early curiosity grew into a career. Before joining MHK, Riley spent seven years at an MSP in Texas supporting industries ranging from healthcare and law enforcement to courts and oil and gas. After relocating to the New York area with his partner, he joined MHK Consultants in April 2025 as a Level 1 Consultant and quickly advanced into his current role.
At MHK, Riley leads project management and automation, designing and building custom tools that streamline how the team delivers service and expand what MHK can offer its clients. He brings deep AI and cloud engineering expertise across Microsoft Azure and mentors junior engineers across the team. Riley holds Microsoft certifications across Azure (AZ-104, AZ-900), Power Platform (PL-900), and AI (AB-730 AI Business Professional and AB-731 AI Transformation Leader), and is currently working toward PL-200.
Outside of work, Riley grew up playing competitive soccer in California with the Olympic Development Program. He is a lifelong sports fan — with basketball at the top of the list — and enjoys gaming in his free time.
