Who I Am
I help organizations navigate complex technology transformations at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, AI/ML, and business strategy.
Currently at AWS, I work with enterprise customers to architect solutions that balance technical excellence with business outcomes. My background spans infrastructure engineering, solutions architecture, and technical leadership, giving me a practical understanding of both the boardroom and the server room.
What I Do
I bridge the gap between what’s technically possible and what’s strategically valuable. Whether it’s:
- Cloud transformation: Moving from “we should migrate” to “here’s how and why”
- AI/ML adoption: Cutting through hype to identify real use cases and implementation paths
- Architecture and scale: Designing systems that work today and grow tomorrow
- Technical leadership: Building teams and processes that deliver consistently
Background
My career started deep in the technical weeds: systems administration, virtualization, infrastructure design. I’ve held every major cloud certification (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), not to collect badges, but because I wanted to understand how these platforms actually work under the hood.
That technical foundation matters. When I’m talking about AI workload optimization or multi-cloud strategy, I’ve built these systems, debugged them at 3 AM, and made the trade-offs myself. Over time, I’ve moved from infrastructure to architecture to business strategy, while keeping one foot in the code.
Beyond Work
Outside of technology, I train Muay Thai and BJJ and follow a structured strength program. Different domain, same approach: show up consistently, focus on fundamentals, measure progress.
