About Me, Lou 👋
Hey, I’m Lou, creator of Open Up The Cloud! 👋 I’ve been a software engineer for the past 10 years, and I’m fascinated by cloud technology, and the impact it has on the lives of so many.
After struggling to find practical cloud content, I started making it myself! Soon I started making videos, and Open Up The Cloud grew organically into what it is today, a community-driven content platform.
I love creating educational tech and cloud content. I write here on the blog, shoot YouTube video’s, publish a monthly newsletter, share tips on Instagram and host spaces on Twitter.
You can find me on Twitter and
LinkedIn, I’m always happy to
chat. You can also find my personal thoughts on loujaybee.com
Speak soon, Lou ✌️!
