📫 How to reach me:

I am a cloud domain architect, mentor, and cloud advocate with over 20 years professional experience. I specialise in designing and building enterprise applications and solutions, principally in the Azure Cloud. I love a challenge and I'm skilled at progressing from a simple proposal into a well-defined and deliverable solution.

I live and work in Melbourne, Australia, but over my careeer I have lived and work in Singapore, Japan and USA (North Carolina).

Terraform has been my new favourite bit of tech in the last few years - solves so many problems of those "infra" issues in a simple elegant way.

Looking forward to full Terraform support in AZD, that will then allow to combine infrastructure provisioning and application deployment in the same GitHub Action / ADO Pipeline, with something like

## Provision Infrastructure
azd provision
## Deploy Application
azd deploy
### or do both, with
azd up
