I have been a part of the industry for over 15 years with skills primarily developed on Cisco’s Networks and Collaboration/Contact Center suite of products.
I also love programming and I have been engaged in the Automation realm for almost 6 years now. This knowledge & experience which ranges from traditional Network Automation to modern APIs has helped me develop and deploy various applications/modules in production environments.
I also run a technical blog dedicated to explaining various automation-related techniques & use cases.
When I am not solving problems then I can be found trekking in the mountains or honing my skills as a landscape photographer :)
