Today on the show, we will be talking to my friend Rick Donato. Rick is a big community contributor in the area of network automation. After several years of working in the industry, Rick went on to found a network automation education start-up, Packt Coders.

Packet Coders is a place where people can learn network automation through code, labs, and community. As you can tell, Network Automation is in Rick’s blood. We both share a passion for network automation, except he does it much cooler.

In this episode, I would be talking to Rick about his personal journey, network automation technologies, founding of Packt Coders, and everything in-between. Let's dive right in!
