// My Story

I'm an IAM engineer passionate about building secure, scalable identity systems. My focus is on designing access controls that protect resources without creating friction for legitimate users.

I specialize in Zero Trust architecture, role-based access control implementation, and identity federation protocols like SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0. I believe that strong identity security is the foundation of every secure system.

Currently deepening my expertise in cloud IAM platforms including Azure Active Directory / Entra ID and AWS IAM, while pursuing industry certifications to validate my skills.

Currently focused on:

  • Mastering Privileged Access Management (PAM)
  • Building cloud infrastructure with Terraform
  • Creating educational content on YouTube
  • Preparing for SC-300 certification
