About Andrew
Andrew
Andrew
Solution Architect · ML Candidate

I'm a Solution Architect in a large UK financial services organisation, shaping secure and resilient technology solutions. I help turn business challenges into practical architecture across cloud, infrastructure, data, integration, and governance — working with teams to design solutions that are compliant, deliverable, and useful in the real world. When I'm not shaping cloud and infrastructure strategy, I'm in the hills working towards my Mountain Leader qualification.
