avatar-small For over 25 years, I’ve engineered network solutions and reduced operating expenses for service providers large and small. Since founding Barrie Jones Cook Consulting LLC in 2005, I’ve architected OSPF and MPLS networks, set BGP peering strategy, and acquired IPv4 and IPv6 address space from RIRs.

I’ve developed custom containers for these with Docker Compose, and become a regular collaborator at NANOG (at left, chatting with Roni Mukherjee of Apple) and its hackathons.
