š Hi there!
I'm Brian Brookman, an IT engineer located in Southern California who specializes in networking, cloud, and Kubernetes. I help people build and operate scalable, resilient IT infrastructures.
Most of my publicly available work can either be found on GitHub or on this site. Iām also active in a number of online communities.
When Iām AFK, I enjoy being bad at my hobbies and spending time with my girlfriend and our cats.
To find and connect with me elsewhere on the interwebz, see my socials page.
