Bio

Hiya 🙋‍♀️! I'm Suzanne and my passion is finding ways to help developers and engineers get the tools and skills to do what they do best: creating the software this world runs on while trying to innovate and make sense of buzzwords at the same time. Sometimes I organize events like Virtual Azure Community Day, contributing.today, hackathons and hands-on workshops. I’m a speaker on technical topics (aks, serverless, OSS related) or more in general on transformation & innovation. Rumor has it, I'm also a decent host/emcee and creative brain. Being ✨proudly nerdy✨. I have a background as developer and worked many years in dev infrastructure & open source: with my feet in the mud to the office of the CTO (with muddy feet). Passionately and with a no-nonsense approach I love to help with understanding cloud technology, application innovation and developer productivity. Caring deeply about Diversity & Inclusion. For instance by lecturing students about diversity and supporting diversity in tech initiatives. Feel free to reach out if you see value in working together, need a speaker, discussing awesome technology or D&I ! Always happy to learn from others and help where I can.
