I build cloud and GenAI platforms at scale — and lead the engineers who ship and run them.

Who I am
I'm a Principal Engineering Manager at Microsoft, working on Azure Core — the platform layer beneath the cloud. I lead engineers who build and operate large-scale, secure services, increasingly shaped by generative AI.
Before Microsoft I led teams and built platforms at Amazon, Pentalog, and earlier in my career. I care about durable systems, clear technical direction, and teams that ship — and keep shipping.
