Hi, I’m Teja! I spent six years working closely with software teams and got obsessed with how systems actually work behind the scenes.
As cloud and AI started reshaping how software gets built, I wanted to understand what was happening under the hood. That curiosity led me to the AWS Cloud Institute, where I dove into cloud computing and modern development and learned the foundations of how cloud systems work and how AI fits into the development process.
I’m an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner and spend my time building small projects that mix cloud services, AI tools, and a lot of experimentation.
This site is where I share what I’m building, what I’m learning, and the things I’ve been excited to explore, with a strong respect for documentation, error logs, and real world behavior. And yes, sometimes things still break, but this time, I have to fix them.
