Laura Santamaria
As a Principal Engineer at Red Hat, Laura Santamaria loves to learn and explain how things work to bridge the gaps in engineering disciplines. She is the host of Technically Leadership, a podcast on the Packet Pushers network, as well as a cohost for the the Cloud Native Compass podcast and was the curator for A Minute on the Mic, a cohost for The Hallway Track podcast, and the host of Quick Bites of Cloud Engineering. As a community member, she co-hosts multiple meetups in the Austin, Texas, area, including Cloud Austin. For many years, she taught Python for the Women Who Code Austin meetup, as well. She is an organizer for DevOpsDays Austin and PyTexas and advises KCD Texas, all community-run conferences, as well as a global core member for the DevOpsDays community.

Outside of tech, Laura runs, reads, and watches clouds—the real kind.
