About

I'm a Software & Cloud Engineer with over 7 years of experience building things that matter. My journey started with full stack development, then I focused heavily on backend systems using PHP, Python and Node.js, before evolving into designing cloud-native solutions and AI-powered systems that solve real-world problems. I love working with AWS, crafting serverless architectures, and turning complex business requirements into elegant, scalable solutions.

When I'm not building cloud solutions, you'll catch me planning my next trip or getting lost in a non-fiction book. I've learned that the most innovative technical insights come from exploring ideas far beyond the tech world. That said, I'm eager to put everything I've learned into practice in my next career adventure! ✌️
