I am an IT enthusiast and because of that over the years I collected an interesting mix of skills; I never say no to a challenge; I usually achieve my goals and deliver on time and within allocated budget; If I'm in the zone I don't care what time or day it is; I am always looking to improve myself either by learning new tech or by doing what i do better & faster. I have my own personal test lab (10 physical machines, >150 VMs or so) with nodes in public cloud(AWS and Oracle for now), my garage(openstack) and colo where I tend to experiment with whatever crazy idea that comes to mind. I have more than 20 years of experience in the IT Industry and more than 10 owning a business and leading a team of specialists so if you need someone that gets things done then I'm your guy.
After this many years of IT experience I felt there's so much more out there for me to learn that I decided to resume my studies so in September 2021 I started being a student once again only this time to get a Master's degree at Reading University - MSc Data Science and Advanced Computing (part-time).
Over time I learned that I can work as a solo player, as a team player as well as a team leader ... each of these options have their own individual challenges and each of them have been equally rewarding for me.
