## About

```text
At Amazon Web Services, I partnered with fintech startup executives to develop and implement enterprise cloud strategies across North American and European teams. I advised clients on switching from S3 to Splunk, helping reduce uncertainty and generate stated savings of $1M to $10M per month.

As a Solutions Architect, I advised customers on AWS solutions for transitioning to remote work, generating $10M in cost savings in FY2021 and FY2022. I also supported early cloud adoption with Toronto-based YCombinator AI and Fintech startups.

I began at AWS as a Solutions Architect Intern and later supported cloud adoption through customer education, training, and architectural discussions. I hold an AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional certification and a Computer Engineering Technology diploma from Humber College.
