Who am I ?

Hi, I'm Aakanksha, a software developer and cloud engineer with a deep-rooted passion for design. As a former architect, I bring a unique perspective to problem-solving, combining creative vision with technical precision to craft innovative solutions that bridge design and technology.

My transition from architecture to cloud engineering has been fueled by a love for innovation and an eagerness to explore new challenges. I specialize in creating user-friendly digital products, designing robust cloud-based infrastructures, and implementing solutions that are as functional as they are visually compelling.

At heart, I’m a creator, a problem solver, and a lifelong learner, driven to craft solutions that resonate with users and push the boundaries of what’s possible in cloud technology and design.
