ABOUT DREW DIALS

With over 30 years in the technology industry, I have worked with a breadth of technologies as well as customers of every size. I have a deep background in Software Engineering and how to transform organizations to deliver custom solutions in a much more agile way, keeping pace with the constantly changing needs of business. That foundation has been invaluable as I now help customers understand the value of cloud technologies within the context of their industries and help them architect hybrid solutions to meet their needs. In the face of constant change in the industry, especially now with AI taking the world by storm, I learn best by building things. After many years of developing and training customers in.NET (VB and C#) I still like to keep my hands in code using Visual Studio Code and now Python. You might even catch a few Arduino boards around the house. And I love to spread the knowledge through mentoring underserved students and coaching during Everyone Can Code events.
