Backstory

In 2013, while working on my research thesis, I discovered the game-changing potential of cloud computing. This “aha!” moment sparked my passion for AWS and automation, challenging traditional on-premise hosting paradigms.

My journey through various cloud agencies and consultancies sharpened my expertise in building robust AWS distributed systems. Leading large-scale migration projects, I climbed the ranks to principal cloud consultant, overseeing end-to-end project lifecycles from requirements gathering to infrastructure deployment and application launch.

By 2020, armed with extensive experience and a deep understanding of AWS, I took a leap of faith and founded Towards the Cloud.

My mission is simple: I’ll free you from infrastructure headaches so you can focus on what truly matters – your core business.

How? By architecting scalable, optimized, and secure AWS infrastructure.
