About

I lead IT Engineering Support Services teams, comprising the technical and operational backbone for complex infrastructure projects. I help bridge the gap between design and daily execution, providing multidisciplinary expertise to optimize processes, ensure regulatory compliance, and drive operational efficiency.

Previously, I co-founded TheQRTist.com, where I owned company-wide technical strategy and product roadmap across open-source adoption, commercial product, and research investments.

In my spare time, I enjoy focusing on my family, learning and personal growth.
