Based in sunny Los Angeles, I've spent my career making complex systems simple and helping teams ship amazing things.

• 🧭 Open Source Leadership: Championing sustainable contributor programs and governance at Dosu while applying lessons from stewarding communities across CNCF and Merly.
• ☁️ Cloud Native Operations: Designing resilient Kubernetes platforms, enabling platform engineering teams, and sharing pragmatic guidance from years in production environments.
• 🤝 Community Building: Creating welcoming experiences through summits, working groups, and contributor education that help maintainers and newcomers thrive.
• 🤖 AI & Developer Infrastructure Strategy: Connecting product teams, researchers, and practitioners to ship reliable tooling that accelerates intelligent applications.

🌊 Cloud Native: Still deeply passionate about Kubernetes and the cloud native ecosystem. I contribute to projects, speak at conferences, and love helping teams navigate their cloud journeys.

🤖 AI Infrastructure: Exploring the intersection of AI and infrastructure—how we build, deploy, and scale the systems that power tomorrow's intelligence.

👐 Open Source Stewardship: Growing inclusive contributor experiences, aligning community roadmaps, and celebrating the humans behind the code.

📚 Learning: Always have a book in hand. Currently fascinated by psychology, systems thinking, and the occasional sci-fi novel that makes me question everything.

I love connecting with fellow builders, dreamers, and infrastructure aficionados! Reach out if you want to chat about Kubernetes, AI, open source, or the best hikes in LA.
