IT Product Architect working at the intersection of enterprise IT strategy and product delivery in large-scale Azure environments.

I focus on aligning architectural direction with product execution — supporting roadmap decisions, governance, and cross-organisational initiatives that improve clarity and decision quality across stakeholders. My background includes rotations in data science, cloud engineering, and IT operations through Ericsson's IT Trainee Program, giving me a broad technical foundation across AI, cloud platforms, and transformation work.

I'm particularly strong in bridging strategy and execution, enabling alignment across business and engineering domains. Alongside architectural responsibilities, I build automation and low-code solutions using RPA and the Microsoft Power Platform to drive internal efficiency.
