# David Morris
Solution Architect at Leidos focusing on federal IT modernization and reliable backend testing.

## About

David Morris is a solution architect focused on modernizing IT infrastructure and building reference architectures for federal agencies. His work frequently involves managing data protection and safely bridging AI capabilities into AWS and Azure environments.

Beyond high-level architecture, David cares about the practicalities of developer workflows. He advocates for faster, more reliable backend API testing in Node and React pipelines, favoring ephemeral SQLite databases over fragile mock frameworks to speed up CI/CD and simplify debugging.
