What is This Blog?

This blog's mission is to help you genuinely understand new topics in cloud technologies to advance your enterprise IT and software delivery goals.

The Why

I created this content because I enjoy assisting others in accomplishing tasks. Technology demands persistence and continuous learning, and my goal is to shorten that time investment through the content that I share.

The How

My content follows a "what, why, how" framework:

• What - Understanding the action
• Why - Grasping the purpose
• How - Executing the solution

I emphasize that measurability matters: Can I measure the improvement this solution is making against the what and why?

Background

I started my career at Red Hat, where I focused on DevSecOps and helping organizations adopt Kubernetes and OpenShift. At Microsoft, I've worked across cloud-native migration, application development, and most recently generative AI architectures — helping teams deliver real business value with gen AI while maintaining trust and compliance.
