Heading to check-in for first day of #kubecon! Excited to talk to everyone about running stateful services on kubernetes and running your own control plane as god intended!.

Nothing like starting your first day at the new job and then finding out they are even more awesome than you thought when you accepted the offer!. Super excited about whats to come with what we are building at
