Senior Specialist Software Engineer | Code Whisperer | Cloud Tamer

12 years of battle-hardened experience in software development, system architecture, and cloud computing. If there’s a bug, I find it. If there’s a bottleneck, I crush it. If there’s an unnecessary meeting, I avoid it.

Specialties:

• Writing .NET Core magic
• Speaking fluent Docker & Kubernetes
• Arguing with AWS & Azure
• Deploying things that hopefully don’t crash at 2 AM

I'm a mentor, problem-solver, and the person you call when your production server starts speaking in error codes.

I once deployed a critical fix in production at 3 AM while half-asleep… and it worked. First try.
