I generally focus on cloud design, facilitating customer workshops that define business and technical requirements to allow businesses to deliver applications on the AWS cloud platform. I'm also fortunate enough to be the first person to earn the HashiCorp Vault Expert partner certification.
As a consultant, I've deployed and assisted with the adoption of HashiCorp Vault for multiple Fortune 1000 companies.
I often speak at community events, such as HashiConf (2019, 2020), HashiTalks (2019), and many HashiCorp User Groups across the mid-west and the eastern US.
