A passion for containerizing software, and how it can help us create better software solutions. Over the years I have learned from all my team members how to work more efficiently. Working at Open IT I worked with WPF applications, ASP.NET development and helped support a D3 product. Group Bazano we built a material tracking application and leveraged Web Forms using .NET 3.5, MS SQL Server and a lot of AJAX. I.S (Internet Solutions) I assisted in supporting the client management application which was Web Forms and began to work with Standards and frameworks and introduced what would be the beginning of what I know now as DevOps by using Web Farm Framework from Microsoft to deploy the application from TFS (Team Foundation Server). One of the largest growth periods was at I.S (Internet Solutions) as I began to explore other technologies to assist the company in other areas, like creating SharePoint solutions for external clients. At Derivco, with standards being at the forefront I added in driving good software and best practices while delivering in an Agile framework, with a passion for automation. My current role at Derivco is to help with the DevOps culture, improving the Continuous Delivery(CD) and Continuous Integration (CI) solutions.
I was a Docker Community Leader for a number of years and tried to find ways to expand the knowledge of containers and how they can improve the company and developers processes’ and lend a helping hand.
