Welcome to my corner of the internet, where I build clouds, architect solutions, and occasionally debate the finer points of Azure Bicep vs. Terraform with my reflection.
My primary directive at Microsoft is to team up with our strategic partners and help them unlock the immense power of Azure Core. Think of me as their guide through the cloud wilderness, armed with technical expertise and a map (that's constantly being updated, of course).
I spend my days (and sometimes nights, fueled by questionable amounts of caffeine ☕) diving deep into technical discussions, ensuring our partners can leverage Azure to its fullest potential. I troubleshoot anomalies 👾, strategize deployments, and act as a bridge between partner needs and Microsoft's cloud capabilities.

When I'm not architecting in the cloud, you might find me exploring retro video games, experimenting with home automation, or trying to convince my coffee machine to run on Azure Functions!
