About Me
Cloud Engineer | Kubernetes Maintainer
I'm a Cloud Engineer who enjoys cloud-native systems and love automating anything that feels repetitive or unnecessarily complex.
My work revolves around Python, AWS, and infrastructure automation, but what excites me most is improving developer experience - turning weeks of setup into minutes and reducing friction wherever possible.
Outside of my day job, I contribute to the Kubernetes SIG Release Team and love being part of a global open-source community. I was involved in the v1.33 to v1.35 release cycles and led the Release Doc Team for Kubernetes v1.35.
