Professional Information

I’m an accomplished, hands-on, & well informed IT professional with 20+ years of experience in providing strategic guidance regarding IT technology and infrastructural enhancements. I’m a tech enthusiast and actively engaged in shaping the future of cloud-native tech through my commitment and passion for the principles of collaboration and innovation.

In my current role as a Senior Specialist Solution Architect for Red Hat’s enterprise leading hybrid cloud application platform OpenShift, I’m supporting internal teams as well as customers running challenging workshops as well as Proof-of-Concepts (PoC). Besides this solution specific responsibility, I’m always eager to encourage and support clients and organizations to adopt new technologies to accomplish their business goals and IT objectives. These technologies are mainly oriented towards application modernization as well as on the platforms to run such modern applications (Microservices).

I’m also a proud ex-VMware employee. During my time at VMware, I served customers and partners in different roles. Roles like in post-sales as a Staff Technical Account Manager or in pre-sales as a Lead Emerging Solutions Engineer.

Achievements

Becoming a VMware Office of the CTO Ambassador counts to my greatest achievements. Members are involved in advocating VMware’s technological innovations, assisting with customer engagements, and contributing to the company’s strategic technological direction. Furthermore, ensuring an active collaboration between VMware’s R&D, field organizations as well as customers across the globe is also an important part of the program.

In addition to the achievement of becoming a CTO Ambassador, I was part of the initial team which created and maintained the official VMware open-source project VMware Event Broker Appliance. The experience each individual of the team has gained and the successes the team has achieved are among the most valuable in my professional career.
