Who I Am & What I Drive

With 12+ years of enterprise technology experience spanning ZEN3, HCL Technologies, Mindtree, LTIMindtree, and LTM, I've evolved from a data-center analyst to a Senior System Specialist leading AI-driven automation initiatives at Microsoft.

My engineering philosophy is rooted in AI-first automation — leveraging Generative AI, Azure cloud services, and intelligent workflows to eliminate manual toil, build self-healing infrastructure, and deliver enterprise-grade reliability at scale. I hold 12 industry certifications including Azure, DevOps, CCNA, ITIL, and Generative AI — and I actively give back through community volunteering.
