How I can help

Independent consulting for Azure architecture, AI-assisted operations, and focused 1:1 coaching — scoped after a short discovery conversation.

A

Azure Deployment Consultation

Architecture and production deployment for Azure IaaS and PaaS, grounded in Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert (AZ-305) work with enterprise and government systems. I turn complex requirements into secure, cost-efficient designs your team can operate.

Who it's for

Teams adopting Azure, leaving on-prem, or right-sizing live subscriptions.

What you get
  • Current-state review and target architecture
  • Identity, network, and governance deployment plan
  • Cost, security, and operations recommendations
  • Optional proof-of-concept or client workshop

AI Automation & Agents

Design and ship AI-assisted workflows using Azure AI Foundry, Copilot Studio, Power Automate, and Python — the same stack I use to automate internal processes and build applications like Request Hub.

Who it's for

Operations, IT, and product teams who want agents tied to real Azure and business systems, not a slide deck.

What you get
  • Use-case workshop and automation map
  • Agent and workflow design
  • Working prototype on your stack
  • Handover, enablement, and operating notes

Private Coaching

One-to-one coaching for Azure, Python, and technical presales, in the same hands-on workshop style I use with client teams. Sessions stay practical: architecture, labs, and the conversations that win delivery.

Who it's for

Engineers, new Azure administrators, and presales staff preparing for delivery or AZ-104 / AZ-305-level work.

What you get
  • Goal-based coaching plan
  • Live working sessions
  • Review of designs, labs, or demo materials
  • Follow-up notes and a next-skill checklist
