Could you share more about your history in IT?
My passion for IT started just after the college period. I had my first learning web development lessons and I saw things change when I modified some variables. But what interested me the most in small lessons about containers after that It became clear that when I saw this that I would like to work in this industry.
In 2018, I embarked on my professional journey in the IT industry, with a keen interest in cloud-native platforms and automation. I was particularly captivated by RedHat‘s OpenShift and the magical power of Ansible to automate everything. This passion drove me to delve deeper into cloud-native solutions and other automation tools, setting the foundation for my future career.

Choosing a single greatest achievement is challenging, given the numerous rewarding projects I’ve been part of. However, the consistent thread throughout my career has been my deep involvement with OpenShift. My passion for this platform has not only helped me grow personally.
The ability to lead a team dedicated to cloud-native solutions and seeing the tangible impact of our work on clients’ success stories is incredibly fulfilling. Each project, whether with Proximus, MLOZ IT or EU-LISA, has its unique highlights and has contributed significantly to my professional growth.
