What surprises you most about the Community Builders Program?

The big surprise for me about this program once I entered is that I understood its a journey that helps you start from starch on the AWS Communities roadmap. This journey offers collaboration of like minded folks who are passionate to learn new things and grow together by sharing their experiences and knowledge with wider AWS Community.

What’s your background and your experience with AWS?

I work as Lead Engineer in AWS/Devops Practice as part of my professional career, and as part of community and opensource contribution I am YouTuber, Blogger who likes to write Technical Blogs and share technical videos which mainly includes AWS Cloud, DevOps, Linux etc. I am also working as AWS User Group Pune Core team member and run a Live talk show to discuss AWS user group community journey behind the scenes.

What’s the biggest benefit you see from the program?

This program has been designed to grow you professionally and personally. This program offers you multiple journey paths for you to grow in terms of technical blogs, videos, AWS USer Group Community, Open source github collaborations with other builders and lot more.

What’s the next swag item that you would like to get?

Honestly speaking I leave this decision on them as whatever swags they have provided to me out of love and support are all extraordinary and mind-blowing. Few of them are as follows
