A growing collection of hands-on AWS Cloud & AI/ML projects. Built to learn, test, and showcase real-world skills.

🚀 Nova: My Cloud & AI/ML Journey

Welcome to my evolving footprint in the world of AWS Cloud and Artificial Intelligence.

This repository is where I build, test, and showcase real-world projects — one command, one service, and one model at a time. Every line of code reflects what I’ve learned hands-on from AWS tools, AI/ML workflows, and Python automation.


📘 My Learning Journey

I’m 48 years old, and this is the second chapter of my career — a deep dive into AI, cloud, and the power of lifelong learning.

My fascination with AI began when LLMs became publicly available. I wasn’t the “technical” person at the time, but I was drawn to how accessible AI made learning — how it felt like a window into your soul without judgment. AI became my teacher, motivator, and study partner — not a shortcut, but a guide.

Over the past year, I’ve studied relentlessly through Coursera and beyond:

  • 🎓 Prompt Engineering Specialization (Vanderbilt University)
  • 🐍 Python for Everybody (University of Michigan – 4 courses)
  • 🧠 AI Foundations (IBM – 3 courses)
  • 🧬 Deep Learning Specialization (Stanford – Prof. Andrew Ng)
  • ☁️ AWS Cloud & AI/ML Certification Prep
    • Currently building a 545-page AI/ML study guide: “The AI/ML Bible”

I’ve also explored cloud computing and am pursuing both the Cloud Practitioner and ML Specialty certifications from AWS.


🧪 Hands-On Projects

Alongside studying, I started building:

  • 🧱 Custom VPC + EC2 + Docker Setup — a full AWS environment from scratch
  • 🤖 Sentiment Analysis AI Agent using CrewAI, hardcoded from scratch
  • 🪄 No-code Multi-Agent Workflows using n8n + OpenAI
  • 📘 The AI/ML Bible — a structured, living document I will upload and open-source here

Now, I’m focused on cloning real AWS GitHub repos, breaking them down, rebuilding them from scratch, and documenting everything. My mission is simple: Learn by building. Build to grow. Share to inspire.


🌐 Projects in Progress

Project Name Description
AWS VPC Setup Build a secure Virtual Private Cloud with subnets, routing, and security groups
EC2 Web Server Launch a Linux instance, install a web server, and access it via SSH
Docker → ECS Create a Docker container, push to Docker Hub, and deploy to AWS ECS
AI/ML Bible Upload Clean, organize, and publish my 545-page study guide for the community

🛠️ Tools I’m Using

  • AWS (VPC, EC2, ECS, SageMaker, Bedrock)
  • Docker, GitHub, VS Code
  • Python, Bash, YAML, Markdown
  • OpenAI, n8n, CrewAI

📈 The Mission

I don’t just study AI/Cloud — I build it.
This repo is my Nova — a star rising from curiosity, discipline, and the belief that it's never too late to learn.

Let’s build. 🔥
