Do you love a good story? Do you find the best way to learn is to fix it yourself? AWS Tech Tales is a weekly Twitch show where we tell stories of real AWS customer issues (either common or very specific), recreate them, and ask you to troubleshoot them live! The show will provide you the base level knowledge needed to dive in and will give you best practices that you can implement in your own environment.
Hosts of the Show
- Matt Berk is a Principal Technical Account Manager based in Brooklyn who's passionate about storytelling, cloud technologies, and FinOps. When he's not solving customer issues, Matt can be either be found in nature with his dog Ollie, at popular NYC restaurants, or at home planning his next trip to a theme park.
- Zhamara Reano is a Technical Account Manager based in California who seeks to elevate the experience of women in tech and promote career development of women. She likes running, hiking, cooking, traveling, spending time with her family, and of course, soccer.
