I’m experiencing peak DevRel today (decided to swap out a demo the day of my keynote, then ironed my dress with the hotel hairdryer, then borrowed a battery from the hotel tv remote to put in my presentation clicker)
Huge PSA: framed art cat beds are a thing, and you can just swap out the art to make it into the best wedding photo display of all time
Elsie loves work time (and I’m happy to give up my monitor for her) @kiro.dev
As this year's 'voice of developers' on the re:Invent leadership team, I built a free tool to help more of you get there! It transforms the generic trip justification template with your specific session details. Tag your boss and I'll help convince them myself 😉 @awscloud.bsky.social
Each day I get closer to my dream job (VP of AWS merchandise) This is a custom/bootleg masterpiece for @kiro.dev
just described jazz as "vibe music" in a business meeting
Just got back from a trip and now I have to go to the office and the cats are NOT HAPPY
Kiro has only been in preview for a couple of weeks but I’ve already started making my own custom bootleg merch #TrinketDrivenDevelopment @kiro.dev
What’s the 2025 version of “our team is a family”?
So this is for a post-wedding celebration but it’s still our only wedding cake! Here’s how I DIY’d a very personal Magic the Gathering cake with a From Lucie cake and some smaller versions of real cards I crafted 💍 #magicthegathering
Imagine how good it is to be this cat who lives at the pet store
PSA for #AWSreInforce attendees - there’s a free bag check room in 126B that’s open until 7:30pm (Also come to my talk SEC504 at 2:30) @awscloud.bsky.social
I’m hand making friendship bracelets to give out to my followers at #AWSreInforce this week and the cats are “helping”

Me, yesterday: “I should get rid of the cats onsen soon because they have not been in there in months” Elsie, today:
Corey I know you said “track jacket” specifically but I think the bomber (first one) is a bit more chic Also the hooded windbreaker can even have printing inside the hood - potentially a nice option (Also obligatory tag for @ke4qqq.bsky.social to pre-warn him about my expense report)
Of course that's @brookejamieson.bsky.social; they're doing their best to convince me to like Amazon Q. They've opened with "stickers." I'm holding out for at least a track jacket.
Each day I get closer to my career goal (making extremely niche AI/AWS themed merch)
