About

As a seasoned Software Architect and Technical Lead, I guide teams to deliver cutting-edge AI and cloud solutions. With 14+ years in software development, I specialize in designing scalable .NET/Angular applications and integrating advanced AI tools (LLMs, LangChain, etc.) into real-world products. I led a recent project that reduced cloud infrastructure costs by 35% while launching new AI-driven features. I’m passionate about mentoring others in AI-powered developer workflows, GitHub Copilot strategies, and cloud-native architecture design.
