👋 Hi, welcome to the rabbit hole!
I am a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) based in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metro area, USA. I often travel, balancing my time between being a digital nomad and enjoying life in Texas. In addition to teaching Microsoft Azure classes, I also consult and provide DevOps automation services. My passion lies in automating daily tasks to free up time for more significant activities. I love teaching and traveling.
With over 20 years of IT management and technical support experience, I am a seasoned professional and Military Veteran. I have primarily worked with Managed Service Providers in the legal, financial, and energy sectors. Currently, I am delving into DevOps and CyberSecurity.
My drive to learn and help others was instilled in me by my grandfather, who established the first computer program at our local community college. I later joined the same program and went on to serve in the U.S. Navy as an IT instructor, among other roles. More recently, I became a Microsoft Certified Trainer specializing in Azure.
When not immersed in IT, I enjoy exploring nature and photography. You can check out some of my photos on my Photography page.
You might also find me trying my hand at fantasy writing. Check out Books by Randy Bordeaux for my latest works.
