Angel started his career as an US Air Force Space Systems Operations specialist in Cape Canaveral AF Station where he realized his passion for technology and software development. He has extensive experience in the private, public, and military sectors. His technical experience includes military/space lift operations, technical writing, software development, and SRE/DevOPs engineering. He also has a wealth of experience in defense and federal sectors such as contracting, information systems, security, and management.

You can find him speaking at or organizing local tech meetups and hackathons where he enjoys engaging with developers.

Angel’s passions are positive disruption, learning, teaching, and mentoring. But most of all, he enjoys inspiring all forms of technologists and building awesome tech communities. When he’s not working with the developer community, he enjoys smoking all types of food: meats, fish, cheeses, and desserts.
