Exploring AWS Cloud Services

Hi, folks! 👋

My name is Mark Cross.

🧘 Let's start off on the right foot with some words of affirmation from our friends at affirmations.dev:

🌟Nothing is impossible. The word itself says 'I’m possible!'🌟

Check back at the top of the hour for a new affirmation!

Now where were we...

I'm Mark Cross and I'm a full-stack engineer. Born and raised in Annapolis, MD, graduate of the University of Delaware (go Blue Hens 🐓), and now Richmond local. I spent the first decade (and change) of my career in SaaS sales and sales leadership, and now use the lessons I've learned to build world-class software.
