👋 Greetings, fellow geeks!

I'm David.

I've spent 20+ years working with technology.

I'm a contracting IT consultant, with a broad range of experience and skills. I'm an AWS Certified Solution Architect (Professional), a remote worker, I've written a book, and I blog on topics that interest me.

My geekiest accomplishments are Funky Penguin's Geek's Cookbook in which record my journey in setting up an optimal HA cloud platform for my own, self-hosted use, and ElfHosted, an open-source "app hosting platform"

In the process, I'm learning new skills re cloud architecture, container orchestration, continuous integration, and automation.

For a one-time engagement, we'll hook up for a 1-hour video call to discuss/unblock your project.

Let's shoot the breeze, and discuss:
