Welcome

Thank you for visiting my personal website. My name is Neal Gamradt and I have been in the web industry since the late 1990s. I am passionate about this industry and love what I do. Currently, I spend most of my day working with cloud services as a Principal Software Engineer with a focus on Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment/Continuous Configuration (CI/CD/CC) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).

Outside of the technical aspects of my job, I also strive to be more efficient in managing my work day; this includes areas like communication, meetings, task management, coding, etc. I feel like there is always room for improvement in all of these areas. Because of this, some of my posts will be related to these topics.

Hopefully you will find some of my posts informative or possibly even entertaining 😀

AWS re:Invent 2024 Planning re:Cap

This year was my fifth time attending Amazon Web Services (AWS) re:Invent. I have previously attended in 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022. The re:Invent 2024 conference was the best I have attended, and part of the reason is due to how prepared I was this time.
