About
Learner - Achiever - Input - Responsibility - Strategic
I possess deep knowledge and experience with public cloud providers, as well as traditional and next-generation networking and security devices. I am a naturally-curious problem-solver and a voracious reader of technical documents and white-pages. I obsess over technology and protocols to the point where I effectively become a self-taught expert, especially when allowed time to research and lab. I absolutely love taking all of the hard-earned technical knowledge that I have acquired on my own (and continue to acquire) and turning that into documentation and processes that can be easily understood and digested by my intended audience, whether they are technically-advanced or otherwise. The only thing that I love more than learning (and my wife, son, family, friends, and dogs) is imparting my knowledge to others and seeing that tell-tale look of understanding crawl across their face.
I eat VPNs and Security-Policies for breakfast, then wash them down with advanced load-balancer VIP configurations. From Cisco to Brocade, F5, Palo-Alto Networks, AWS, Azure, and more, I am extremely well-versed in the platforms and technologies which enable modern businesses to thrive and expand their online presence in the most secure and highly-available way possible. If you have any questions or need assistance, I am your guy.
