A Little About My Journey

I started with full-stack development using React and Node.js, building applications for insurance, travel and internal business workflows. After managing development and releases as a Technical Head, I expanded into backend, platform and cloud engineering. Today, my work includes enterprise finance services, AWS and Azure infrastructure, and the monitoring and release controls that support production systems.
