About Me

Over 15 years of experience in the IT industry, I have held various roles, ranging from Developer to Technical Product Support as well as Release Management and now fully established as a Cloud Engineer. Since 2020 I have discovered a new passion for AWS Cloud, I hold full certification in AWS Cloud Architecture and have been actively working with Clients to help design, build and maintain 'well architected' infrastructure within the AWS Cloud environment.

I am a member of an AWS Academy (self-funded), where I study advanced cloud computing during late evenings and weekends. I have achieved four certifications, including CompTIA Cloud+, AWS Practitioner, AWS Architect Associate, and BCS in Artificial Intelligence. My career aspirations revolve around working in AWS cloud environments or similar fields. I am committed to obtaining further certifications to enhance my career prospects.

I believe I am well-suited for this career as it requires a strong background in understanding software application design, architecture, testing, and analysis. This role demands an insight into anticipating, identifying, and solving problems efficiently under pressure while maintaining excellent communication and organizational skills. These skills have been honed through my extensive experience in the Airline and IT Industry, dealing with clients.

Throughout my employment and academic history, I have demonstrated the ability to work both independently and as a positive team member. I take ownership and responsibility when necessary and actively contribute to the creation of new and innovative ideas. As a self-motivated individual, I continuously strive for excellence in all areas of my work. I am always eager to acquire new skills, expand my knowledge, and embrace new challenges within the IT sector. I am well-prepared for new challenges and eagerly anticipate the opportunity to advance my career within an innovative and exciting company.
