I love helping people learn and tinker with new technologies and provide different angles on topics such as application performance, security and resiliency. I've given talks at meetups around the Midlands as well as at Universities. My aim is to provide interesting and thought provoking talks for a variety of skill levels in a kind, open and honest way to inspire all those listening.
