I'm a Associate Principal Solutions Architect at Red Hat, focused on helping teams ship to production faster. My sweet spot is cloud-native architecture—OpenShift, Kubernetes, and everything that makes distributed systems actually work.
What I'm up to:
- Training & Deploying AI models (computer vision, text-to-speech, speech-to-text, audio transcribing) in various model formats (vLLM, gguf, onnx)
- Mostly for enterprise customer requirements and their workstation requirements which increases the complexity
- Building with FastAPI, Spring and Angular, always going deeper
- Contributing to the Java/Spring ecosystem (cloud-native all the way)
- Learning Kotlin, exploring React, tinkering with electronics on the side
Beyond the keyboard: I travel to experience how people live in different corners of the world. I fix electronics for fun (broken or not—there's always something to learn). I play guitar, ride motorcycles, and generally gravitate toward anything that moves. Currently building something new.
