About Instructor 👩💻
Some of you might know me from my YouTube channel, ‘Tech With Lucy’, where I help job-seeker and career-changers build their technical skills and land their dream cloud job. But before we dive straight into this course, let me share a bit more about my journey.
I embarked on my cloud computing adventure nearly 4 years ago, where I spent most of that time working as a Solutions Architect at AWS. My main role was to help small-to-medium businesses integrate cloud technologies into their operations This involved a lot of problem solving, understanding customer needs, and designing tailored solutions that leveraged AWS services to drive business growth.
Throughout my job, I gained a deep understanding of cloud infrastructure, network architectures, and how to build scalable systems in the cloud. Working closely with businesses taught me the importance of clear communication, strategic thinking, and being customer-focused.
But, my work didn’t just stop there. On the weekends, I mentored and helped hundreds of students and job-seekers through one-on-one consultations. This included helping them with resume building, and conducting mock interviews. Here's what some of my mentees had to say:
"What I find particularly helpful with Lucy's teaching style is her ability to break down complex concepts into easily digestible information."
"Lucy's insights into the AWS interview process were invaluable. Her tips on how to articulate my experience and skills during interviews gave me the confidence I needed. Thanks to Lucy I landed a job as a Architect"
"I was struggling to understand where I fit in the cloud industry, but with Lucy's extensive knowledge of the Cloud industry, she helped me map out a roadmap of what to do."
There’s so much I have planned for you in these lessons, and I can’t wait for you to join me. So grab a cup of tea or coffee, and let’s get started on what I hope will be a rewarding course for your cloud career!
