About Me

Present:

As of January 2021 I work at WeaveGrid!  I am a platform engineer doing all things with Kubernetes, AWS, Terraform, and build pipelines.  It has felt so good just stepping back into the world of hard core engineering and building toward a common purpose for good in the world.  I’m really proud of the work we do and excited to watch this company grow. The people I’ve been working with are extremely dedicated and talented and I’ve learned a bunch in just the short time I’ve been with them.

Past:

I’ve worked at: Cisco, IBM and a few other small startups you’ve never heard of.

  • Zenabi: Such a talented group of people I worked with building data pipes for doing data science on ecommerce systems.
  • Cisco: Worked on Data Center Automation, Cloud, OpenStack, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure.  I absolutely loved it at Cisco.  Such incredible people and great opportunities.  I still can’t believe I left such a great job.  A total dream job!
  • Sumavi: I founded this company with the goal to make bare metal provisioning enterprise ready!  Great success and had a great time.
  • IBM: I focused on using and developing the open source xCAT project to solve data center management problems for large scale systems.  I loved it here and worked with great people!

I’ve created several iPhone applications and help friends get their businesses online doing an odd job of web coding here and there.

Future:

DevOps, Applications, Infrastructure as Code, AI, Automating all the things.

The parallel universe:

I also enjoy long walks on the beach and watching gladiators wrestle.
