A long time computer user who began before the Internet was ever available in your home, today I am a system admin and container dev. Most of my contracts are remote. Docker is great and I love it, but I began working with containers before Docker. I like building container images from scratch and creating containers programmatically. While I began networking wrestling with cables on the floor and above ceiling panels, today I enjoy networking on the command-line interface. Unix, Linux and open source is my work and play.
