(Keith takes no credit for KubeDoom itself - he stands on the shoulders of giants. If you want to check it out for yourself you can download it here: https://github.com/storax/kubedoom)

Keith is responsible for building CockroachDB-based solutions with our largest technology partners, including shepherding the CockroachDB Kubernetes Operator from initial conception to a GA release. Prior to Cockroach Labs, he held technical leadership positions in cloud-native and big data companies including DataStax, Mesosphere (now D2IQ), and Platfora. Keith lives in the metro DC area with his spouse Megan, and would also be happy to talk to you about gaming, barbeque, and bourbon if you get tired of him going on and on about Kubernetes and databases.
