About

About

I’m a DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure Engineer based in Leeds, UK, with a decade of experience working on Azure infrastructure for large-scale SaaS platforms. My work centres on reusable Terraform and Bicep modules, shared CI/CD tooling, and an expanding AI platform layer, built around automation, consistency, and giving product teams the foundation they need to move at real scale.

I’m a woman working in tech, and that perspective shapes both the work I write about here and the way I think about the people doing it alongside me.

Currently at The Access Group, where I’ve owned the cloud infrastructure layer since May 2021.
