First and foremost, I love working with people to define and drive IT solutions that meet mission/business objectives. I thrive in a collaborative environment while working with teams to define problems and create valuable, desirable, and feasible solutions. I am constantly expanding my domain knowledge to identify the trends and opportunities so I can deliver measurable value. I concentrate my energy on improving my organization’s IT implementation and strategy which leads to improved processes, more productive teams, and a more efficient path to our objectives. -----In my spare time I like to tinker in my home lab. Most of the time I’m working on projects from the open source community but I also like to test larger deployments and distributed applications.Currently working on VMware Certified Advanced Professional (VCAP) DCV Deploy; Kubernetes; self-hosted documentation
