Overview
SRE-focused engineer with a Linux systems background, currently finishing an accelerated Bachelor's & Master's in IT while building out Kubernetes and observability skills in my home lab. Former frontend engineer who understands both sides of the reliability equation. I'm drawn to SRE because I think in systems—I want to understand why things fail, build safeguards against failure, and create infrastructure that developers can trust. Looking for a team where I can grow these skills while contributing to meaningful reliability work.
