I fell in love with the cloud when I discovered how cloud computing could transform challenging technical problems into practical solutions. After starting as a developer, I found my true calling in designing solutions that significantly enhance deployment efficiency and scalability for the organizations I work with.
☁️ Today, I build solutions using AWS core services, from EC2 and S3 for core infrastructure to ECS and EKS for container orchestration and API Gateway, Lambda, and DynamoDB for serverless applications. I have also been incorporating event-driven tools like Amazon SNS, SQS, and EventBridge to build highly scalable and decoupled systems that stream real-time data, orchestrate automated workflows, and enable event-driven architecture.
💡 I recently used Amazon Bedrock to generate instant answers to security questionnaires with 90%+ accuracy, cutting the time spent on security reviews by 70%. I implemented an RAG architecture with Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases, Agents, Guardrails, and Lambda functions.
💰 One of my favorite projects reduced a client’s infrastructure costs by 30% while improving their system performance by 45%—a win-win that makes this work so satisfying. By implementing a combination of Reserved Instances and Spot instances for non-critical workloads and using AWS Compute Optimizer to right-size over 200 EC2 instances, we were able to slash costs while boosting application response times.
🎤 I enjoy translating technical concepts for C-level executives. My presentations, which break down complex cloud architectures into business values, help leadership understand and support transformation. These presentations have secured buy-in for significant initiatives.
🤝 As an AWS Community Builder and Docker Captain 🐳, I thoroughly enjoy sharing what I’ve learned with others. Something is rewarding about translating complex technical concepts into language that helps executives grasp the value of cloud transformation.
📚When not building in the cloud, I guide students as a Royal Rangers commander.
