Guest Bio and links:
I spent over a decade as a SysAdmin wrangling user endpoints and virtualizing business apps at the University of British Columbia. I spent the latter half of this time specializing in & evangelizing PowerShell, DevOps, and Automation. In 2019, I made the shift into Presales Engineering, working for Chocolatey Software and then Cloudsmith. I fell in love with helping customers and solving complex problems, and have never looked back. I’m also a speaker & author in the PowerShell Community.
When not talking your ear off about PowerShell and DevOps/Automation, I enjoy nerding out on Open Source, tech gadgets (especially travel ones), stickers, graphic design, A/V production, and snowboarding. My Wife (Marla) & I recently welcomed our Daughter (Layla) into the World (Aug. ‘22), which has been the toughest but most rewarding job. Consequently, we spend most of our free time napping.

About the Author
Andrew Pla
PowerShell MVP, podcast host, and Community Director of PowerShell Summit
I’m a technical educator and community builder. I’m a Microsoft PowerShell MVP, podcast host, speaker, and Community Director of PowerShell Summit. I also work at PDQ alongside sysadmins and IT pros every day.
Community isn’t just what I do. It’s where I get my energy. I genuinely light up when I see someone land a new job, level up a skill, or show up to their first conference. I love sharing that passion with others.
Every week I host a live podcast and stream on YouTube covering PowerShell, automation, and the humans behind the keyboards.
