About Me
Hello, My name is Spencer and I have been a technology enthusiast for as long as I can remember. My interest in technology ranges anywhere from hardware (consumer and commercial), operations, development and information security.
Currently I work as the Principal Cloud Architect for a large healthcare organization. I have expertise in Cloud Security, Cloud Architecture (specifically Cloud Native Infrastructure) and Linux. Our team follows DevOps principles, trying to bring down barriers between business units. There is never a quiet day and there is always something to be automated with new things to learn. I have a bachelors degree in Information Sciences & Technology with a Minor in Security & Risk Analysis.
