About me
Hey I'm Bret. Thanks for learning about me. I'm a freelance DevOps and Docker consultant, trainer, speaker, and Open Source volunteer working from Virginia Beach, USA. I've helped over 350,000 people learn Docker and DevOps tools and techniques.
I've been a cloud and datacenter ops/sysadmin for more than 25 years. For years I've been exclusive to containers and I help teams Dockerize their apps and systems, and improve their speed of deployment, resiliency, metrics, and awareness. All that DevOps-y stuff.
I'm also a Docker Captain and CNCF Ambassador. I speak at conferences, run a popular Discord server, do weekly live events on YouTube, and love helping others. I'm obsessed with containerizing any app I see, and I'll likely talk your ear off about it next time we meet.
I sometimes develop in Node.js, Bash, Go, and general web, usually for open source. When not doing cloud native DevOps stuff, I'm watching sci-fi, playing games (tabletop and xbox), and traveling with my wife and dog.
Please check out my courses and join me with thousands of others who are learning the latest DevOps tools!
