In this episode, Emily and Dave chat with Chris Williams, an AWS Community Hero, and Cloud Therapist at World Wide Technology. Chris walks us through his multi-decade career, from the start of computer virtualization, to breaking into Cloud Computing, and the history of Boston area developer communities. The trio share what changes they have seen the pandemic bring to communities, why they feel it is important to be part of your local developer community, and how true growth comes from learning with others.
