What a ride this year has been! In May I was laid off from MSFT. Soon after became a #DockerCaptain, landed a new role at @Jamf leading #Azure + #AKS, & now I’ve been re-awarded a #MicrosoftMVP for the 11th year!

Honored to be back. Congrats to all new & renewed MVPs!

I joined Kevin Evans on the Code To Cloud podcast to talk AI, cloud, career resilience, farming, personal finance, layoffs, and more.
