Focus on Fresh: Using AWS & IoT in Food Warehouses Pt. 1
As I've worked in food for the last ten years, the hardest part about trying to make the transition to tech is trying to figure out exactly where I stand or want to stand for that part. The "impostor syndrome is real", as they say, and with the seemingly endless possibilities, it can be hard to figure out where to start on your path. AWS re/Start was the entry point for me. Earning a Cloud Practitioner certification gave me familiarity with cloud infrastructure and how to use it to scale...

Where Do I Even Start?
Where do I even start? It's a question I not only find myself trying to answer as I compile this piece but also as I navigate my personal journey of attempting to find a career in tech. The word technology encompasses so much, especially as our affinity for and dependency on it as humans continues to grow. While we stumble ever so gently in 2022, we seem to find ourselves at a turning point. Between NFT's, web3, DAO's, cloud-based development, machine learning, and the Internet...
