# About Me

I'm a DevOps Engineer with 6+ years of experience building and scaling cloud infrastructure on AWS. I specialize in infrastructure-as-code with Terraform, CI/CD pipeline design, container orchestration, and driving platform reliability across distributed systems.

My background blends deep technical depth with a focus on developer experience — building platforms that make it easier for engineering teams to ship faster and with confidence.

Outside of work, I contribute to open-source tooling, write about platform engineering, and enjoy automating everything that can be automated.
