About
I'm a cloud security and infrastructure engineer based in Toronto with more than seven years spent designing and securing hybrid cloud environments, and increasingly applying AI to security and operational problems.
At Google Cloud I supported Premium Top-50 enterprise customers, resolving 180+ production cases and engineering consults across Kubernetes, GPU infrastructure and generative AI. I hold an active Government of Canada security clearance and eight cloud and security certifications, including the CCSP.
Today I'm building Apropos Agents, where multi-agent systems make conflict resolution legible to people without a legal team behind them.
