About Me

Engineer by profession. Artist by passion.

I'm a Software Engineer and Certified Cloud Architect with hands-on experience across Azure, AWS, and GCP. I specialize in building resilient, scalable systems and writing clean, maintainable code that solves real problems.

When I'm not engineering solutions, I pursue my creative interests — producing experimental electronic music, designing soundscapes on synthesizers, and crafting visual stories through film and video. These aren't hobbies that blend into my work; they're separate passions that keep me curious and well-rounded.

I believe being multifaceted makes me a better engineer. Having interests outside of tech gives me perspective, prevents burnout, and reminds me that software ultimately exists to serve human experiences.

Why I Build

My approach to software engineering
"Great software solves real problems with elegant, maintainable solutions."

I believe the best engineers are pragmatic problem-solvers. Technology should serve users and business goals — not exist for its own sake. That means choosing the right tool for the job, not the newest or trendiest one.

I'm drawn to cloud architecture because it's where engineering meets real-world scale. Designing systems that handle millions of requests, stay resilient under failure, and remain cost-effective is the kind of puzzle I enjoy solving.

Every project I take on asks: What's the simplest solution that will actually work?
