I currently work full time at Duke Energy with a wonderful team.

As I worked at Duke as a new hire, I was also pursuing a data science certificate at MIT. That course was helping me better serve Duke's product teams who used AWS AI tools. I had hoped to grow in that company to help develop those tools upon completing the course.

I was contracted at Duke Energy through Brooksource after passing my AWS Cloud Practitioner cert. In the span of 9 months, I learned how to automate IaC with Terraform and support over 100 teams using Amazon Web Services.

During this time, I also achieved the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate certification.
