## Who am I ? {#who-am-i}

I am a DevOps cloud engineer with a passion for technology, automation, Linux and OpenSource.
I've been on Linux since the _early_ 2000's and have contributed, in some small capacity, to some open source projects along the way.

I dabble in this space and I blog about it. This is how I learn, this is how I evolve.
