About the speaker
Experience behind the talk
Based in Denton Texas, I'm a Senior Solutions Engineer at Datadog spending my days helping engineering teams understand what's actually happening inside their production systems. I've instrumented everything from single-page apps and distributed microservices to LLM inference pipelines and IoT hardware — and I have the war stories to prove it. Outside of work, I'm a hardware tinkerer, open source hacker, civic data advocate, and dumb idea generator.
