I hold a B.S. in Computer Network Engineering and multiple Cisco expert and specialist certifications, including CCIE Enterprise Wireless and CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure.

I lead projects that standardize and automate network deployments, streamline processes, and mentor junior engineers. My technical strengths include enterprise wireless design, network security and access control, routing and switching, SDN, data center solutions, and automation using Python and REST APIs, demonstrated across clients such as ICA Group, Scania, FRA, Lantmännen, Sörab, and H&M.
