A little about me
I'm a Principal Developer Advocate at AWS based in Frisco, TX. With over 15 years of experience spanning system administration, networking, and training, I bring more than a decade of cloud expertise to help engineers, developers, builders, and tech enthusiasts master AWS technologies.
My philosophy is simple: always be learning something new, and have fun while doing it! I share what I know through workshops, online courses, mentoring, and live streaming... making complex cloud concepts accessible and enjoyable.
When I'm not building in the cloud, you'll find me exploring craft beer scenes in new cities or teaming up with friends in Marvel Rivals on my PlayStation, because even superheroes need good teammates!
All opinions are my own.
