My tech career didn't start in a fancy office - it started in call centers and on-site with clients, untangling network cables and solving real-world problems. That hands-on experience at places like Clicks Retailers taught me how massive enterprise systems actually work and, more importantly, how they break. I realized I didn't just want to fix things; I wanted to build better, smarter systems from the ground up. This led me to a deliberate, self-funded pivot. I went all-in on mastering the cloud, not just one piece of it, but the whole 360-degree view. I wanted to understand how the infrastructure (IaaS), the data (PaaS), and the intelligence (AI) all connect. The projects you see on this site are the direct result of that journey.
A real-time, two-way communication tool that translates American Sign Language (ASL) into spoken text and vice-versa. This project showcases the full lifecycle of an AI application, from data collection and model training to front-end integration.
An end-to-end data engineering and AI project that digitizes a traditional paper appointment book. Using AI Document Intelligence to extract handwritten data, the project analyzes historical appointments to find business patterns and uses those insights to power an intelligent, natural language booking system.
Designed and implemented a secure, governed cloud environment using Bicep (Infrastructure as Code). This project automates the provisioning of VMs, Key Vaults, and Azure Policy, showcasing expertise in cloud security and automation principles.
This very website, designed to showcase my skills. It was built from scratch and is automatically deployed via a CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions to Azure Static Web Apps, ensuring zero-downtime updates.
