DevOps engineer with 10 years at Facebook and Target, passionate about mentoring developers in infrastructure and reliability.

Hello! I am a former Facebook Production Engineer, meaning I was tinkering around with systems and software on one of the largest web infrastructures in the world. Now I am out of the 'rat race' and looking to use my skills and experiences to serve others, including you!

I am interested in and passionate about:

  • HTTP and Web infrastructure
  • TCP/IP, home, and small business networking
  • Python
  • Linux
  • Cloud infrastructure
  • System monitoring, scaling, and reliability

Please reach out if you think I can help. Thanks!
