Hi,
Welcome to my blog, and thank you for being here. My name is Geries Simon and I’m currently working as a Software Architect at Dell in Austin, Texas.
Some background
I’m an Electrical Engineering graduate of Texas A&M University. I started my career at Dell as a hardware engineer and then slowly transitioned into software. I was born in Honduras and moved to the U.S. many years ago. I’m a husband and a father. Spanish is my native language.
What I’m working on
My current mission is in a team called Client Engineering Digitalization, to transform workflows and streamline collaboration through digitalization. I enable solutions that help my colleagues and I have a better and more productive work environment. I travel around the world to meet the most wonderful people and to make magical things happen.
What I like to do
Aside from my never-ending interests in the technology space, I often ride my mountain bike across various Austin bike trails. On the weekends I enjoy throwing a frisbee around, kicking a soccer ball, doing picnics with my family and friends, and talking about geeky things. I also created a men’s group called Tacos with Joe where I meet weekly with a group of guys to eat tacos and share in authentic and vulnerable conversations.
My interests
My interests are in distributed computing and infrastructure. I would like to do more writing in my free time, and this is the main reason I started this blog. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that there will be more than one post on this blog. :)
