As someone who comes from a sales and business background, my path into the cloud world didn’t begin with code—it began with conversations.
Over the past few years, I’ve worked closely with clients to understand their pain points, align AWS solutions to their needs, and drive cloud adoption in a way that delivers both technical and business value. This journey has taught me something crucial: you don't need to be a developer to make a meaningful impact in the AWS ecosystem.
🌐Where It All Started
My involvement with AWS began through solution consulting and sales enablement. I was focused on helping businesses navigate their cloud journey—whether it was migration, cost optimization, or adopting modern architectures like serverless or containerization.
Through this, I found myself learning alongside my team, gaining AWS certifications, and digging deeper into the cloud capabilities that solve real-world business problems. This blend of customer engagement, technical knowledge, and cloud advocacy became my foundation.
🔍 Why the AWS Community Builder Program?
The AWS Community Builder program stood out to me because it’s more than just technical skills—it’s about sharing knowledge, helping others grow, and building meaningful community connections.
While many community builders come from a developer or engineering background, AWS also values voices that can bridge business and technology. That’s where I believe I can bring value:
- By sharing customer success stories
- Highlighting how AWS solutions support business goals
- Advocating for programs that reduce cost and accelerate innovation
💡 What I’m Doing Now
To prepare for this next step, I’ve been:
- Actively posting on LinkedIn about AWS use cases and insights
- Collaborating with our AWS team on go-to-market strategies
- Participating in AWS programs like the Migration Acceleration Program (MAP) and Well-Architected Reviews
- Connecting with others in the AWS Partner and Builder communities
- Working toward new AWS certifications and learning tracks
🙌 My Goal
I aspire to be an AWS Community Builder not just for personal growth, but to give back to the broader cloud community that has empowered my career.
Whether you're a developer, an architect, or someone like me who started in sales, there’s a place for you to contribute, learn, and lead in the AWS ecosystem.
Let’s connect! If you're also navigating the intersection of cloud and business—or aspiring to grow within the AWS community—I'd love to hear your story.
