Hello

This page will serve as my Portfolio / blog.
I’ve spent over a decade working across enterprise infrastructure — designing, managing, and troubleshooting the systems that keep businesses running. My background spans cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments, with hands-on work in AWS, Azure, Windows, Linux, Terraform, and Python.

These days I’m focused on the intersection of cloud infrastructure and automation — building things that are scalable, repeatable, and actually make operational life easier. I’m also keeping a close eye on where AI fits into modern infrastructure workflows.

Outside of work, I run a home lab with a bunch of devices I’ve “Frankensteined” together where I tinker with the things I don’t get to break at work.
Always open to connecting with others in the cloud and infrastructure space.
