About



Hola! I am Paul. I am a Microsoft Certified Master and a Solutions Architect for Micron Technology, Inc.

My IT career started as a software engineer in Peru in the banking industry. Then I came to the US for an MBA, switched a letter and became a DBA. Ever since then I have been fascinated by how data becomes information.

I am currently focused in automation using PowerShell and Azure DevOps.
