## About

```text
At American Type Culture Collection, I administer LIMS/ESP across multiple environments, including production, and manage AKS infrastructure supporting the platform.

I support pipeline-based deployments with Azure DevOps, Helm, YAML, Azure Container Registry, and Azure Database for PostgreSQL. I also develop Azure Bicep templates to standardize and automate VM deployments.

Previously, I deployed enterprise AI platforms including Microsoft Copilot and Claude, covering licensing, Microsoft 365 integration, access management, and user rollout. I've implemented PIM, IAM, and Conditional Access policies; managed Azure infrastructure; and led Intune lifecycle management, Windows 365 Cloud PCs, and macOS onboarding.

I began in infrastructure support, managing AD and Azure AD accounts, supporting SharePoint migration, deploying workstations through SCCM, and supporting servers, switches, scientific equipment, and end users.
