Portfolio Logo

Cloud & DevOps Engineer | Infrastructure Enthusiast

I'm a recent computer science graduate deeply passionate about Cloud, DevOps, and Infrastructure Engineering. What started as curiosity turned into hands-on projects — containerizing apps with Docker, automating deployment with CI/CD pipelines, provisioning infrastructure with Terraform, and securing cloud architectures with best practices.

Tech Stack & Tools

Cloud & Infrastructure:

AWS Terraform Docker Nginx Linux Prometheus Grafana

CI/CD & Version Control:

GitHub Actions Git

Frontend & Backend:

React Node.js MongoDB MySQL

Programming Languages:

JavaScript Python Java HTML/CSS Bash

I design, build, and deploy secure cloud systems — from Dockerized apps to AWS infrastructure with Terraform and CI/CD. I'm obsessed with system integration, reliability, and documentation that reflects the real-world complexity of infrastructure.

Certifications

  • AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (2025)
  • CompTIA Security+ (2025)
  • Terraform Associate (Scheduled July)
  • AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate (Scheduled June)

Featured Projects

🟢 Secure Cloud Portfolio Website

Deployed a containerized React portfolio app on AWS EC2 using Terraform, Docker, and CI/CD via GitHub Actions. Features VPC-level security, Route 53 domain routing, NGINX reverse proxy, and HTTPS via Certbot.

Current Focus Areas

  • Cloud Engineering (AWS core services, IAM, network security)
  • DevOps practices (CI/CD pipelines, logging, automation)
  • Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
  • Docker containerization and system orchestration
  • Secure multi-tier deployments (Frontend ↔ Backend ↔ Database)
  • Home lab setups and self-hosting
  • Writing and publishing technical documentation & cloud blogs

Personal Strengths

  • Detail-Oriented: Obsessively thorough when it comes to system design and architecture
  • Quick Learner: Push beyond tutorials to customize and optimize real solutions
  • Strong Communicator: Translate technical concepts into clear, accessible explanations
  • Systems Thinker: Thrive when connecting components to deliver real-world functionality

Learning Style

I learn best by building, breaking, debugging, and documenting the process. Each project is not just a build — it's a mini-case study I convert into blogs, diagrams, or README breakdowns.
