Steve Watkins
VMWare
Advisory Solution Architect
Came to Silicon Valley in 1999 to work with a couple of startups, and eventually landed at Cisco as a Technical Solution Architect in the Cloud Solutions group. From there, the allure of cloud-native applications led to tenures at Pivotal Software and eventually VMware as part of the Modern Applications team focusing on Kubernetes-based solutions. CKA, CKAD, and SAFe certified. A real passion for simplifying emerging technology for customers and helping them put it in their business context.
