I am passionate about all things data.

I am currently a Principal Developer Engagement Strategist with Infor, a global leader in business cloud software solutions. I joined Infor in January 2024 to help lead their developer engagement efforts.

Prior to Infor, I worked for several years at AWS evangelizing on the AWS cloud platform and technologies before joining Backblaze in 2021 to help launch its B2 Developer Evangelism program. From my AWS days, I hold 8 AWS technical certifications and am a certified AWS Champion Technical Trainer. I also am a FinOps Certified Practitioner.

I have decades of experience as a developer. I am a seasoned application architect, data analytics specialist and software development lead with extensive experience in product and technology evangelism, developer outreach and technical training.

I am an accomplished public speaker, speaking regularly at major developer conferences including at AWS Summits, QCon, Adobe Max Annual Developer Conferences and the NAB Show.

In my off time, I am an avid swimmer and enjoy finding unique and beautiful pools to swim in around the world.
