Hey! It’s Gilbert!

Gilbert Sanchez

Not just good. Good enough.

I’ve created this blog as a way to help share some of my discoveries. I’m a believer in Learning in Public and these posts are more polished compared to the notes in my Digital Garden.

Nothing I write is “The Way” but rather “A Way”. Have a different approach? Tell me all about it!

I work as a Staff Software Development Engineer, formerly known as the Señor Systems Engineer at Meta. I enjoy spreading the love of PowerShell at scale. A fan of Role Playing Games (RPG), you can check out my RPG-oriented modules on the PowerShell Gallery.
