Things I do

DevOps 💬

As an Infrastructure Engineer specializing in DevOps, I focus on building scalable, cloud-native systems using Infrastructure-as-Code principles. My work revolves around automation, continuous integration and delivery, and enabling engineering teams to move fast with confidence.

Open Source 💻

I’m also active in the open-source space, where I publish and contribute to various projects. Sharing code and collaborating with the wider developer community is something I value deeply.

Community 📊

Driven by a belief in the importance of community and knowledge-sharing, I regularly give public talks. Engaging with others and exchanging ideas helps me grow and contribute back to the tech ecosystem.

Writing 📰

In addition to speaking, I write articles and tutorials on topics like DevOps, cloud infrastructure, and open-source tools. Writing helps me clarify my thinking and provide practical value to others facing similar challenges.

Photography 📸

Beyond tech, I’m passionate about photography—especially portrait and aviation photography. It’s a creative outlet that allows me to capture powerful moments and perspectives.
