TIME IN LOS ANGELES -

About

I'm an IT professional with a strong focus on solving complex cloud and network challenges. I collaborate closely with sales and engineering teams to design and deliver impactful solutions across Azure and AWS. I've led licensing migrations, translated business requirements into scalable architectures, and supported the adoption of cloud security and collaboration tools.

Outside of work, I enjoy music, coffee, and hands-on projects. Whether it's restoring a vintage flip clock or fine-tuning my espresso machine with a PID controller, I'm always looking for ways to improve and experiment.
