An outgoing creature of the species 'articulate techie', I am Chief Technical Evangelist at Backblaze.

I am an accomplished international public speaker, presenting at events such as Dreamforce, OSCON, JavaOne, the RSA Conference, GlueCon, Storage Developer Conference and many more. I love to see the light bulbs illuminate above the audience's heads as they learn how the technology I'm presenting can apply to their situation.

In my spare time, I run far. 50 miles is my longest race to date!
