Michael Colson

I’m a builder at heart, so my interest in technology naturally extends well beyond the office. I thrive on the hands-on process of iterating—whether I'm architecting AWS, Cisco, and Ubiquiti environments or fine-tuning Splunk dashboards to surface meaningful insights.

While I’ve traded my early days of C++ and Java for the agility of Python and PHP, that deep-level foundation remains the backbone of how I solve problems.

I live by the 'always be labbin' philosophy, constantly applying that same eye for detail across every interest. I’m a KCBS Certified BBQ Judge, a long-time member of the American Coaster Enthusiasts, and a devout NASCAR follower (with a healthy side of F1, baseball, football, and hockey).

Whether it’s a championship-caliber brisket or a high-G hairpin turn, I appreciate anything engineered for peak performance.
