Landing zones, identity, networking and governance on Azure, with the automation to back it up.
I'm an Azure Solutions Architect at Climb Global Services, working in Professional Services. I lead customer engagements end to end: presales, architecture design and delivery, aligned to the Well-Architected Framework.
My career started in service desk and infrastructure engineering (Citrix, VMware and virtual desktops), moved into cloud engineering, and now sits in architecture. I like designing things properly the first time, then automating the repeatable parts so they stay that way.
