About

A bit about me

I'm a recent graduate from the University of North Texas with a B.S. in Business Computer Information Systems, graduating Magna Cum Laude on a Dean's Scholarship. Originally from Kathmandu, Nepal.

My focus is on cloud infrastructure and automation; I enjoy writing Terraform to provision reproducible environments, building CI/CD pipelines, and containerizing applications. I've worked across AWS and Azure, and I'm comfortable in Python, Bash, and HCL.

Outside of tech, I spent nearly two years as IT Support at UNT's College of Visual Arts & Design, managing infrastructure for 500+ users and automating workflows with Python scripts.
