About Me

I build the infrastructure that powers modern software - from Kubernetes platforms and GitOps pipelines to data and ML workloads. I worked across regulated industries (HIPAA, FedRAMP IL5, GxP) where reliability and security aren't optional, helping teams ship products without the operational overhead. Privately a big fan of open-source and homelabbing.
