I am a Cloud / DevOps / SRE Engineer with a passion for automation and cloud technologies. I am also a tech enthusiast who loves to build things.

I spend my time working on making processes better, efficient and more fault tolerant. I am always keen to pick up new skills and technologies to work on new side projects.

Outside of work, I like to go for long drives, take pictures and play badminton.
