I'm a Senior Manager, IT with 13+ years leading IT security, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise integration programmes across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Akamai. I'm currently leading an enterprise-wide Zero Trust programme — replacing legacy perimeter security with cloud-delivered, identity-aware secure access — and a MuleSoft transformation spanning API governance, Anypoint Omni Gateway, Mule Agent Fabric, and MuleSoft-to-Salesforce MCP connectivity for agentic integration workflows.

My specialisation sits at the intersection of Zero Trust & Identity Security and AI Governance & LLM Integration. I own AWS and GCP infrastructure strategy and cost optimisation across business units, and I build AI-driven IT operations hands-on — designing internal agents with n8n and LLM APIs, including a daily-briefing agent, a spend-analytics dashboard, and an automated AI-tool scanner with multi-provider cost routing. I'm also a certified Agentforce Specialist, deploying autonomous Salesforce agents and RAG-powered pipelines using Einstein AI, Claude, and ChatGPT.

On compliance and identity, I run SOC 2 Type 2 and HIPAA programmes end to end — evidence collection, risk assessments, auditor relationships, and policy documentation — and administer Okta for SSO/SAML, SCIM provisioning, adaptive MFA, and device trust. I also administer Slack Enterprise Grid, covering workspace governance, Workflow Builder automation, DLP, e-discovery/legal hold, and SIEM integration in support of SOC 2 and HIPAA controls.

I'm a firm believer in continuous learning — consistently expanding certifications across Salesforce, cloud, and security. I'm also a content creator producing AI explainer videos on YouTube and travel reels on Instagram, bringing a communicator's perspective to complex technical topics.

Digital Labour — The Agentic Shift
Autonomous AI agents at work
AI Ready

Digital Labour is the shift from humans performing repetitive tasks to autonomous AI agents handling them independently — scaling operations without scaling headcount. As a certified Agentforce Specialist, I architect and deploy this digital workforce: agentic pipelines routing real-time alerts into triage channels, Workflow Builder automations provisioning new employees into Slack, incident response bots enabling engineers to query logs directly from threads, and RAG-powered knowledge systems built on Slack Canvas that centralise API docs, onboarding guides, and escalation protocols as persistent institutional knowledge.
