Hey, I’m Sean!

I’m a site reliability engineer by day and an LED/home automation/Solar addict by night.

I believe that everyone benefits greatly when we work together and share knowledge.

I excel at explaining complicated topics in an approachable manner, and I’m not afraid to do so in front of an audience.

I’m also a diver, a geek, a husband, dad and a friend.

I’m originally from Canada, but I have lived in Germany since 2010. I travel a lot and love to experience new things, both technically and culturally.
