PROFILE / BACKGROUND

From the details to the bigger picture.

I’m working towards Solutions Architect and Platform Engineer opportunities. I enjoy understanding how systems fit together, making trade-offs explicit and reviewing changes before they reach an environment. Alongside cloud and platform work, I’m developing my AI infrastructure practice through projects.

HOW I WORK

Careful changes.
Clear thinking.

Start with the failure modes. Keep assumptions visible. Prefer small, testable changes. Document the reasoning so someone else can understand and operate the system.

My cloud security work includes reviewing AWS storage configurations and Terraform plans. My MSc project explored RFM, K-Means, collaborative filtering and SHAP, with FastAPI and Streamlit.
