ABOUT ME
Experienced Operations Engineer with a passion for sharing knowledge.
Experienced Operations Engineer with a passion for sharing knowledge.
I have around 25 years experience in IT. In the past 8 years I have enjoyed my time as a DevOps practitioner in a few different roles. I have been able to combine my prior network and systems administration skills into a well-rounded DevOps practice.
Technologies and tools come and go, but the fundamentals of DevOps always remain important. I believe that my range of knowledge will be helpful to you!
