What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment focused on cloud innovation and automation.

I am a recent graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering from the University of Texas at Dallas. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in cloud technologies and DevOps practices, complemented by hands-on experience in real-world projects. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create efficient and scalable solutions.

One of my notable projects involved building a real-time face detection and classification system for Mozee Inc., where I led a team of six engineers. This experience honed my leadership skills and deepened my understanding of Agile methodologies. Additionally, I architected a fully serverless AWS application that achieved remarkable performance metrics, showcasing my ability to design and implement robust cloud solutions.

With certifications in AWS Cloud Practitioner and AWS Solutions Architect – Associate, I am committed to continuous learning and staying updated with industry trends. I am particularly interested in infrastructure automation, cloud reliability, and containerization, and I am eager to contribute my skills to a forward-thinking organization.
