From IT Foundations to Contracting in the UK
In August 2016, I embarked on a new chapter by diving into the UK’s dynamic IT contract market. With nearly two decades of experience in IT infrastructure—spanning On-Premise Data Centres, 3rd Line Engineering, and Cloud Engineering—I’ve tackled high-stakes projects like Merger and Acquisition IT migrations. This shift allowed me to deliver robust, scalable solutions in fast-paced environments, sharpening my expertise across Microsoft technologies, VMware, SAN Storage, and Linux.

Pivoting to Cybersecurity with Purpose
In 2022, I made a deliberate move into cybersecurity, driven by the industry’s urgent need for skilled professionals. Diving into Ethical Hacking, I’ve climbed to the top 6% on TryHackMe and earned my Certified Ethical Hacker credential. Cybersecurity thrives on relentless learning, and I’m all in—aiming to deepen my impact by 2026 through engagement with OSINT and Red Team communities, tackling real-world security challenges head-on.

Harnessing AI as a Tech Ally
The AI revolution, ignited by tools like ChatGPT in 2022, has reshaped the tech landscape. Rather than fearing change, I see AI as a catalyst for efficiency and innovation. At Sweat-Digital, I’m weaving AI into my toolkit—experimenting with ChatGPT, open-source models like Llama and Ollama, and frameworks like CrewAI. Currently, I am focused on boosting my skills and knowledge around NVidia AI Infrastructure, Terraform, Kubernetes, and Docker, while tackling a 100 Days of Python coding challenge to sharpen my automation and deployment skills. My goal? To amplify my expertise, streamline workflows, and unlock fresh opportunities in an ever-evolving field.
