About

Senior Site Reliability Engineer (aka: professional geek) for ForgeRock, based in Bristol, UK.

I'm a Puppet user and a huge believer in Agile and DevOps. I'm also a Computer Science graduate (2010) from Aberystwyth University, Wales, Liverpool FC fan, bass guitarist, heavy metal and musical theatre fan.

I've written a Puppet module for VMware Tools installation and management (see GitHub and PuppetForge) and attended numerous DevOps conferences worldwide, making my presenting début at PuppetCamp Stockholm in November 2015.
