Azure Solutions Architect

With a longstanding passion for technology and a deep commitment to security, I strive to build IT environments that are secure, scalable, and optimized for business growth and operational excellence. My expertise spans IT infrastructure, cloud computing, and cybersecurity, where I focus on implementing robust security strategies, streamlining IT processes, and ensuring compliance to safeguard digital assets.

My journey in IT began early, fueled by a fascination with technology that led me to earn a Bachelor's degree in IT from the University of Gujrat. After relocating to Germany in 2018, I enhanced my skills through specialized training in system integration at IT-Akademie Dr. Heuer GmbH in Düsseldorf.

I currently serve as Manager (IT & Security), where I lead internal IT teams while optimizing Microsoft 365 and Azure platforms to drive collaboration, streamline operations, and implement innovative IT solutions. My most recent role was as Senior Consultant for Modern Workplace at Orange Business, where I developed deep expertise in infrastructure management, cloud security, and digital transformation. I have collaborated with organizations of all sizes, designing and implementing tailored IT and security solutions to meet their unique challenges. Additionally, I have been a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) since 2020, underscoring my dedication to continuous learning, knowledge sharing, and an eagerness to embrace new technologies. I value collaboration and the exchange of insights on IT innovation and security.
