Welcome to the show. My name is Michael Lynn and I'm a developer advocate at MongoDB. I've spent most of my career as a software engineer, working with software and data in various industries. And I'm so excited to sit down each week with folks that have done the same. These are engineers, developers, founders of companies, CTO, CEOs, anybody innovating with software and.

And the goal of the podcast is really to share what they've learned through the process of building something amazing in the hope that maybe you'll learn something and improve the way you're doing something. Learn about a new tool, uh, learn about Mongo DB, maybe learn about the Mongo DB application data platform.

If you're listening and you like what you hear, I'd like to ask you for a favor. If you could leave a comment and a rating on the podcast network that you're listening. That'd be super helpful. Thanks everybody. Talk to you soon in the next episode.
