I'm passionate about optimizing application performance, building teams, and developing PerfOps (Observability) and FinOps capabilities for Australian and international (remotely) businesses of all sizes.
Throughout my career in consulting, engineering, and management, I have held a variety of positions and worked in a variety of industries.
Co-wrote an IBM Redbook on "Performance and Capacity Implications for Big Data," as well as the eBook "Introduction to Blockchain." I'm also a member of the Global Skill Development Council's Blockchain Advisory Board and an AWS Community Builder Program participant.
Finally, I enjoy creating new professional contacts. Please contact me if you want to discuss System performance, Observability, FinOps, Emerging technologies, Test process improvement or Football.
I am available for consulting, speaking engagement and collaboration.
