I’m Matt Lawson. I live in Malmö Sweden, where I never stop learning.
I’ve love taking things apart and making things for as long as I can remember.
The only thing I loved more than figuring out how things work was computers. I remember the day my family got our first computer, it was a passion at first sight. I would stay up all night teaching myself all kind of things. Then when computer gaming took off, I wasted way too many hours on massive multi-player online games like Final Fantasy XI and World of Warcraft, however... I have many friends still today from that time in my life. In high school, I wanted to become an architect and used 3D programs to visualize what I had in my head, once I found out that you could automate many tasks with MEL scripting. My programming career started.
Today, I’m a Principal Cloud Architect at Google, where I am working with Retail companies within Europe on their cloud journey and their digital transformation; all on Google Cloud. I also have a passion and love for mentoring and teaching individuals on programming and how to use the cloud.
Never. Stop. Learning.
