Title: STEM Skills through Minecraft

Description:

How do you start young people out with STEM skills, and DevOps in particular? Make it useful, make it fun! I taught my nine year old nephew to take his Minecraft game to a whole new level by showing him how to administer a remote Minecraft server, a Docker container running on Digital Ocean.

I’m a DevOps Engineer, and I’m happiest when spawning invisible computers in “the cloud.” I started out in the tech field in 2007 when I attended my first web development meetup in Providence and learned what “WYSIWYG” meant. Nowadays you can find me at DevOps meetups or hanging around in the Seaport district.
