IT enthusiast & cloud learner
Built my first PC, fell deep into computers, and never looked back. Now I'm building in the cloud and working toward a career in IT & cloud engineering.
origin story
About 5 months ago I built my first PC from scratch. Sourcing the parts, figuring out compatibility, seating the CPU, managing cables it was the first time I genuinely couldn't put something down until I understood it completely.
That curiosity didn't stop at the build. I started pulling on threads how does memory work? What actually is an operating system? How does networking happen? I found CompTIA, started grinding through A+ and Network+ material, and felt like everything was clicking.
Then I discovered the cloud. AWS took everything I was learning about infrastructure and made it infinitely scalable and accessible. I passed my Cloud Practitioner and Solutions Architect Associate exams and I'm working toward my next cert. Outside of tech I also follow Formula 1 pretty closely. I write about it here →

New regs, new cars, new power units. Here's what the testing numbers actually tell us about who's fast and who's hiding pace.
