Hello. My name is John, and I am a Director of Cloud Architecture and engineering with over 20 years of experience in cloud computing, data center modernization, and enterprise infrastructure. I specialize in designing and leading large-scale cloud migrations, optimizing hybrid environments, and building scalable, secure cloud solutions.
I have collaborated with large enterprises and government organizations across various sectors, including healthcare, hospitality, and state government. My expertise encompasses multi-cloud architecture (Azure, AWS, OCI), networking, automation, and security, which allows me to develop cloud strategies that optimize performance, security, and cost efficiency.
I adopt a practical, results-oriented approach to architecture, ensuring that solutions align with business goals, technical best practices, and future scalability. Whether I am leading cloud adoption, decommissioning legacy systems, or optimizing infrastructure, my focus remains on delivering solutions that provide genuine value.
I built this page as a part of the Cloud Guru Azure Resume Challenge.
