SCROLL

Architecture meets
leadership.

I'm an Innovation & Cloud Architect Director with 15+ years in the Microsoft ecosystem — evolved from enterprise .NET developer to leading cross-functional innovation areas spanning Power Platform, Azure, and custom development.

Today I drive digital transformation initiatives for enterprise clients, overseeing AI-powered products including AI4Teams, AI4Align, and AI4Orchestration. My work connects architecture, strategy, and delivery.

Enterprise clients I've worked with include PwC, Medtronic, MPS, and Nexive — across banking, healthcare, logistics, and consulting.
