$ whoami

Hey there, thanks for stopping by! This site covers topics that I find fascinating: AI, JavaScript, Python, AWS, and maybe a bit of gaming. I've been working with computers since I was a kid and have loved every step of the journey. My career started as a C developer, and now I spend my time immersed in AI tooling (mostly PyTorch, with a bit of TensorFlow). Currently, I'm an AI/ML Specialist Solutions Architect at AWS.

$ career journey

Over my 20+ year career, I've worn many hats. From starting out as a C developer, working on embedded systems and OS-level code, to hardware engineering, web development (hello, early HTML days!), and building apps with Angular and Next.js. I've even spent time in cybersecurity, working on red and blue teams, and got into cloud infrastructure when AWS was just taking off in 2008. For the last 7+ years, my focus has been on AI/ML, and I'm always excited to share what I know. Got an AI question? Hit me up!

$ skills & certifications

I've had the chance to build products across a variety of tech stacks like Django, Flask, React, and Angular. These days, Next.js is my go-to, though I've also been experimenting with Streamlit for AI/ML prototypes. I've earned 12 AWS certs, 5 CompTIA certs, CISSP, and CEH. I co-authored two books: *Python 101* and *The Official AWS Study Guide for the Developer Certification*. My takeaway? If I can do it, so can you. Learning is a journey, and I'm here to help you along the way!

$ how can i help?

If you're working on a project, need guidance with AI/ML, or just want to chat about tech, reach out to me at hey@caseyg.me. I'm always excited to connect with others who share a passion for technology.
