A bit about me

Available for conferences & meetups

I'm an Enterprise Architect with nearly two decades across finance, government, and SaaS — designing cloud-native platforms, leading enterprise transformations, and delivering secure, scalable solutions on Azure and AWS. I focus on tangible, measurable results: automation, integration, scalability, security, and availability.

/ BUILD

Cloud-native products, end to end

From architecture and infrastructure to production — designed to scale and built to last.

/ AI

AI & agentic systems

Agentic workflows, MCP servers, and RAG — with enterprise-grade security and governance.

/ LEAD

Technical leadership

Cross-functional teams, delivery governance, and the standards to ship on time.

/ FIX

Untangle the hard problems

Legacy migrations, integration headaches, production issues — root cause, then resolution.
