Mudra Hello!!!
Hello from Ohio!!! Joe Mudra here, Pure Systems Engineer supporting State Local & Education Customers in Ohio & Kentucky. Some many know me from the shoes, the beard, or maybe the Christmas Cards. I've been at Pure Storage for 2 years, prior to that I was at Arctic Wolf Networks for 1.5 years, and Veeam Software for almost 7 years!!! But more importantly, I spent most of my time in IT in YOUR shoes, our Users!!! From my humble beginnings at Ohio University in a small IT shop there while going to school, to Enterprise sized Businesses in the Central Ohio region. I'm super excited for this new Pure Storage Community hub and really hope our customers leverage the wealth of knowledge that exists in our customer base. Look forward to seeing what our community makes of this new space!!!

Screen fatigue is real!
When you’ve been staring at your screen for hours and your body starts to protest—what’s your go-to “desk stretch” or movement break? Do you do a quick neck roll, maybe some stealthy squats between Zoom calls? Or do you go all out with a mini dance break like nobody’s watching? Drop a comment below!

Hey, hey! I'm Jason Walker, Director Technical Strategy at Pure!
I've been with Pure Storage since 2019, bringing Pure Storage’s Cyber Resilience message to the market. I've met with thousands of customers on the best approach for their desired outcomes and appeared on many, many webinars and events. We've come a long way in such a short period of time, and I am excited for the future! Personal note, I am a graduate of the University of Florida, have covered sports as a sportswriter and on-air personality, and currently reside in Daytona Beach Shores, FL. Go Gators!

The Great Beverage Debate
Are you on #TeamCoffee or #TeamTea? Drop your vote — and then tell us: 🍵 Tea lovers — What’s your go-to tea? (Sweet tea, iced tea, herbal, bubble tea… spill the (literal) tea!) ☕️ Coffee crew — How do you take your cup? Jet-black, fancy foam, or basically dessert in a mug? Let’s hear those flavorful preferences!

UK Solution Engineer - Rohan Mohindra
Hi to the Pure Storage community! My name is Rohan Mohindra, a Systems Engineer in the Pure Storage UK&I Enterprise team, based in the south-east of England (Berkshire to be specific). My passion for tech and IT began when my dad taught me how to build my first computer aged 12 and I have been working in IT since 2005. I've held a variety of roles for various companies scaling from support to Product Management to Infrastructure Management, Customer Services, and Pre-Sales. Ive previously been a SCRUM master for Agile development methodologies and an ISO27001 officer as well as supervising teams and mentoring younger team members. For the past 10 years I have been focused on Storage, Cloud and all things IT working for HDS, Huawei, NetApp and finally Pure during the process. I joined Pure in the summer of 2022 and have touched multiple Enterprise customers already. I have worked with a variety of partners, resellers and vendors on a wide range of technologies within the data centre and cloud; but eventually I joined Pure due its Evergreen architecture benefits specially around NDU, TCO and green credentials! You will see me at the FlashCrew Pure User events in 2025 and 2026 in the UK as I will be co-hosting these.. if you do see me, please say hello and lets have a chat about anything technology related .. or if you like me also share a propensity for collecting things (for me its Transformers and modern classic cars) then feel free to chat about that too!

Skip the tourist hot spots!
What's one underrated travel destination spot that stole your heart? It could be a tiny town, an off-the-radar museum, or a local café you stumbled upon. Bonus points - if you have a photo or fun travel story to go with it!
