HOW I BUILD
Infrastructure that is version-controlled, observable and repeatable.
I treat infrastructure like software: define it in code, review it, automate delivery and monitor the result.

ABOUT ME
Engineering cloud infrastructure with clarity and purpose.
I design, automate and support AWS infrastructure with a strong focus on security, reliability, cost awareness and maintainability.

Alongside my technical background, I bring more than ten years of commercial experience across operations, finance and technology — giving me a strong understanding of stakeholder needs, business impact and ownership.
