I was contacted by Packt Publishing to be a part of the technical review team for the book on Learning Cassandra for Administrators. If you are interested in picking up on Cassandra check it out.
I have been in the software industry for over 14 years in many different roles including LAMP engineer, software developer, technical trainer, and manager. I enjoy learning new things and working on strong teams. I spend my free time with my wife and my son, trying to stay dry in the pacific northwest. I spend all day with my head in the clouds (AWS usually).
