  • Thinking Out Cloud

    Join us for a look into Bryan Sullins, SE Journey. Where we discuss his recent transition to SE from a long career in IT. In this episode we gain a perspective at his SE genesis. Being, Bryan is just 3 months into the role.

    We learned, how Bryan approaches this new role; works to stay a trusted advisor, changes in the day-to-day, that Zane is an abstract thinker, Bryan taught Literature before IT (what?), and exceedingly more. With so much information contained in one little podcast, we though it only right to name this one after Bryan’s own blog, Thinking Out Cloud.

    Where many (including himself) have turned to gain insight into topics such as Virtualization and Automation. Where we can now we all can follow him in this new journey.

    So, come along, on this SE Journey.
