I am an innovative professional with a robust background in petroleum technology, property management, and manufacturing, now pivoting towards a dynamic role in cloud computing as a Cloud Support Engineer.

My diverse experience enables me to bring a unique perspective to cloud technologies, blending hands-on engineering know-how with strategic property and operations management skills. This rare combination equips me to deal with complex technical challenges while ensuring alignment with business objectives.

Known for exceeding production targets and fostering team collaboration, I've improved team morale and tenant satisfaction significantly in previous roles. In the manufacturing sector, I surpassed production goals by over 11%, highlighting my ability to optimize processes and deliver exceptional results.

I'm on the hunt for roles that will leverage my transferable skills in cloud support and solutions architecture. I'd be grateful for introductions to professionals in this field, and I'm open to advice that could help steer my career in this new, exciting direction.
