3 Lies, 24 Hacks, and One Weekend in Ben Guerir

In 2015, I sat in the audience at DockerCon Europe. I was just an attendee then, watching the giants of infrastructure take the stage. That spark led me to start giving internal talks at my job.

I then joined the speaking circuit, appearing at BlaBlaConf, GeeksBlabla, BizTech Morocco, and OpenSourceDays.
