About

I'm an engineer driven by curiosity and a deep passion for both technology and storytelling. My work spans from Cloud infrastructure to cutting-edge eBPF development, where I enjoy pushing the limits of what’s possible. I share my insights and hands-on experience through eBPFChirp (https://ebpfchirp.substack.com), a weekly newsletter that simplifies complex eBPF-related topics for network developers and platform engineers. Outside the terminal, I'm also the author of Beyond Your Horizon, a hardcover autobiography about resilience, growth, and everything in between: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D8RTFWY6?ref_=pe_93986420_774957520
