Sommelier turned Software Engineer

Hi! I'm seeking roles in development or as a technical solutions engineer. I have over 20 years of experience in leadership, education, and customer-facing roles serving all ages from youth to adults. 10+ of those years were spent in hospitality with a focus on wine. I freelance as a wine instructor with my own curated curricula using technology and digital means as my education platforms. In my spare time, I volunteer teaching dance to youth and adults of all dance and fitness levels. Learning code has opened another creative avenue for me in my pursuit to help people better navigate our daily lives.

Infrastructure engineer/manager looking to switch to system programming (Rust)

I come with over a decade of experience including IT infrastructure engineering, engineering management, and product management. While I am currently managing the IT ops, products, and compliance at a small Tier 3 data center, I am looking forward to swing the pendulum back to engineering with an interest on systems programming. I have used a handful of programming languages, primarily in DevOps-related work, and I am currently teaching myself Rust. I would love to start in a remote position which would involve a significant amount of work in Rust. I would also really welcome an opportunity where I can learn to work with things closer to metal or OS (e.g., no_std, networking). I shall be sure to bring all of my diverse experience, remote-readiness, enthusiasm, and loyal team spirit to the table from day one. Oh, if you want custom mechanical keyboards to be built, I can help with that too.
