About
I'm a seasoned cloud expert with about 15 years of experience in the IT industry, and have been fortunate enough to gain broad exposure in various roles helping Fortune 100 companies around the world.
I am also a guest lecturer at the Kelley School of Business, Indiana University.
I have a strong track record of helping mentees land cloud architecture jobs, mostly in big tech.
As a mentee, you’ll have hands-on support from me. Our first call entails going through a career worksheet. From there, I'll dive in with written notes and a structured plan. When you leave sessions, what steps to take next and why.
As a mentor, I can help you:
- Break into tech
- Navigate a career change into Cloud Architecture or Engineering
- Design an awesome portfolio and interview presentation
- Prepare for interviews, whiteboard challenges, architecture review, system design, etc.
- Develop in your current role and build a personal development plan
I focus on being inquisitive, tailored to you, and above all collaborative. You’ll have a free introductory call to make sure my mentorship is the right fit!
I'm super passionate about giving back, and shaping the future community of cloud engineers, professionals, and architects.
Let's connect!

With 12 years of enterprise infrastructure engineering experience, I found myself unceremoniously laid off and struggling to gain any traction in the job market. Whether it was earning certification after certification or building project after project, it felt like I was chasing constantly moving goalposts and it all began to feel a bit hopeless. After stumbling upon MentorCruise I found Sagar and immediately found both encouragement and someone with the experience necessary to provide the guidance I needed to get across the finish line. What was beginning to feel like a moonshot a few months ago just became a reality for me. He provided valuable guidance and advice in terms of what skills to focus on, which projects to build, how to approach the job search, right on through the interview and negotiation process. I can highly recommend Sagar if you are currently struggling to reach your goal - he has made a very real and very positive impact in my life in the few months that we've been working together.
