ABOUT ME
Software & DevOps Engineer
Software & DevOps Engineer

Software Engineer turned DevOps.

Coming from a software engineering background focused in web development, I have always been interested in the supporting infrastructure. With the emergence of DevOps, I have truly found my passion. This newfound enthusiasm has led me to pursue DevOps professionally. I have recently received my first AWS certification, and plan on having all 3 associates and both professional certs sometime next year (2018). I have been working professionally as a software engineer in the web development world since 2012, and have been focusing on DevOps since 2015.

Began as a web developer enthusiast, which lead me to explore building and configuring my own servers. My love for development and systems management has merged into a love for DevOps! I have been familiar with practices related to DevOps for years, and have been focusing almost entirely on it for the past 2 years.

Started learning PHP while studying Computer Science at CU Boulder. It was a hobby that turned into a career. I don't work with PHP on a daily basis anymore, but I am intimately familiar with the language.

I have been around Ruby on Rails for years, and I have been a part of many projects built on it. I do not consider it to be my strongest area of expertise, but I feel comfortable in most Rails projects.

I have been using Linux since before I understood what it really was. I spent 100% of my time in college working in Linux/OSX, so I am extremely comfortable in the unix terminal (bash). I have learned a lot of tips and tricks along the way, and would love to share the wealth!

Charlie is an exceptional mentor! He is able to explain things in an understandable way, without having to attempt to understand it in a different way. What I mean by this is the first time he explains something, it is understandable, and does not need to explain again. Would recommend to anyone wanting to learn anything CS or JS related as he has an outside way of thinking of things and seeing what others don't. Will definitely be doing many more sessions in the future!
