Who I Am

I am a DevOps / Infrastructure Operations leader with experience managing teams that own:

• Cloud infrastructure (primarily AWS)
• Kubernetes and virtualization platforms
• CI/CD pipelines and developer enablement
• Observability, reliability, and on-call practices
• Network and security-adjacent tooling (WAF, DNS, tunneling, VPN, zero-trust access)

I have led teams through:

• Modernization efforts (migrations, replatforming, introducing IaC and CI/CD)
• Operational hardening (incident response, SLOs, runbooks, automation)
• Cost awareness and capacity planning
• Building strong, collaborative relationships with product and security teams
