With over 20 years of experience in the IT industry, I’ve had the privilege of growing from an engineer to an engineering lead and now a Principal Software Engineering Manager at Microsoft. Currently, I lead a talented team within Azure Communication Services, focusing on ACS Recording and Captions, where we deliver high-impact solutions and drive innovations that enhance communication experiences. Throughout my career, I’ve built expertise in technical leadership, project oversight, and people management, delivering successful product launches and scaling solutions across reputed brands like Microsoft, Amazon, Qualcomm, and Bank of America. I’m passionate about mentoring and developing talent, fostering a culture of growth, and guiding the next generation of tech leaders to navigate complex challenges and achieve their goals.
