About

billy@thefullstacker:~$ cat about.md

My career spans more than a decade and has taken me from hands-on field and desktop support to network and systems administration, data center engineering, and, ultimately, cloud and platform engineering, giving me a broad understanding of the entire technology stack.

Having worked across the multiple technology fields, I can identify opportunities to automate operational tasks and build platforms that prioritize security, observability, and recoverability.
