This week we talk about CenturyLink changing to Lumen and welcome our guest, Jay Hanley from Thrive.  Jay is a seasoned Solution Architect and it was awesome to host him on the show.

Jay covers his background which began in Finance & Economics...nothing to do with Tech.  We're talking numbers, graphs, supply and demand all of the subjects many of us avoided so we could take a programming class, ha!

In all seriousness, his background in business lends itself well when solving critical workload challenges with his customers.  He's not simply putting a demo together or explaining the finer points of his value-prop....he talks about breaking it down for each customer.  Every company has a slightly unique business case and we ask Jay how to perform in that scenario as a Solution Architect.
