When quitting isn't an option

"Without effort, your talent is nothing more than unmet potential. Without effort, your skill is nothing more than what you could have done but didn't."

― Angela Duckworth, Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance

Bio

I am a DevOps engineer with a background in full-stack web development. After 13 years in the Canadian Navy I discovered a love for automation and efficiency: moving from Windows to Linux opened my eyes to open source and collaboration, and I have been hooked ever since. My goal is to automate anything that involves repetition, from simple scripts to complex infrastructure as code.

I thrive at the intersection of full-stack development and the DevOps world, where I can apply both skill sets to build seamless, reliable systems. When I am not tinkering with code, I am spending time with my wife or punishing my body through exercise.

Languages

English and French are home languages. Living in an English-speaking environment means I get few chances to speak French, so I am always happy to talk in it. I can also understand Mandarin.
