Hi, I'm Matt. I like all things Cloud, UNIX, web development, network architecture, and application migration. I've lived in the Pittsburgh area my whole life, but I love to travel — especially to Miami, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles.
I worked for Apple in college and I'm a complete Apple geek as a result. I share my home with three Australian Shepherds (yes, they're as crazy as the stereotype). On weekends you can usually find me on a lake — the guy on the jet ski going way faster than anyone probably should.
I've been keeping it cloudy since 2017, and I'm a Consumer Electronics Show (CES) alum for '12, '13, '15, '16, and '17.
