This is me

Branden Martin, I've been working on learning more within cloud computing, expanding my general skillset and knowledge, and really you're looking at me place theory, into a real world application.

Hosted Via S3

This site is hosted within an S3 bucket in my personal AWS account and the domain was registered via Route53. I was able to create some type A DNS files to map the destination to my cloudfront distribution.

Done for security

The reason for working within Cloudfront was to both gain the knowledge, as well as provide the ability to use the HTTPS protocol which S3 static website hosting isn't compatible with natively.

More about me

Well if you're still here you're free to enjoy looking at some of my hobbies and getting to know a bit more about me in general.

Hiking

Being in the PNW has given me quite a lot of opportunity to get out and explore some of the local trails.

Gaming

Currently, I'm on a Valorant kick, a fun fast paced FPS similar to CS:GO created by RIOT Games with abilities added.

Disk Golf

What better way to enjoy hiking than making it competative and adding beer?

Music

I spend a good amount of my day listening to music. A few of my favorite bands currently are Oso Oso, Pet Symmetry, and The Ophilias.
