About
Hi, I’m Chet Hawkins, a Cloud and Full-Stack Engineer with a passion for creating innovative solutions and simulations. I specialize in Microsoft 365 administration and enjoy building complex artificial life projects that challenge the boundaries of technology and creativity. At my current role, I take pride in managing secure and reliable cloud environments for a large user base.
I love combining my software architecture skills with real-world applications, like my automated payroll system that saved a government agency over $150,000 annually. When I’m not engineering systems, you’ll find me experimenting with AI simulations and pushing the envelope in the tech space.
