I fix broken servers and deployments, then lock them down so they stay fixed. Recently I rebuilt a hacked production server with zero data loss, and rescued a live learning platform used by schools in Thailand. Got a vulnerability alert, a broken deployment or a server move? Send me a note. I reply within 2 hours with a plain plan. I'm an AWS Certified Solutions Architect and DevOps engineer with 2.5+ years of hands-on work on AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, DigitalOcean and Linux servers.
