Bio

I always operate at the forefront of technology, curious about Kubernetes, App Innovations, Cloud Native, and OSS technologies. I enjoy partnering with developers and C-level executives to realize the value of Cloud Native through, public speaking, communities, and hackathons. I've been a backend developer most of my life, and in the last few years, I helped companies build and modernize Cloud Native applications.
