I'm using Openstack as a developer and am interested in improving it!

Matt is a Principal Software Engineer at Charter Communications and uses devops to deliver self-service IT infrastructure and services using OpenStack. Matt's focus is primarily on configuring and deploying OpenStack using tools like puppet and ansible, but he pretty much works on everything. A fan of open source projects, Matt is also active in the puppet and Ubuntu communities. Matt has previously worked at Canonical and HP. Matt lives with his family in Colorado and enjoys spending time hiking and skiing when not writing or deploying code.
