Meraki Evangilist

[danhosking]

1. A bit about yourself & your work - Hi my name is Daniel Hosking, I lead our National Architecture Services team. I have worked in the IT industry selling and deploying Cisco solutions (wired, wireless and security) since 1996.
2. Your experience with Cisco Meraki - I have had extensive experience selling, designing and deploying Meraki solutions over the last 6 years. Highlights include -
• A 150 site retail network for a national carrier, each site consisting of a full Meraki Stack
• A 4000 seat high-rise building with Meraki servicing both the corporate users and IoT devices
• Designing and deploying a high density wireless Meraki network in theatre with a 5000 person capacity, integrated into both Cisco Umbrella and DNA spaces through API
3. What you're hoping to gain from the community - See new ideas and share knowledge from my previous Meraki engagements
4. A fun fact about yourself - I like to have a laugh, watch the Meraki video I put together below and watch until the end 🙂

Welcome to the community! Those are impressive numbers.

Back in my day all we needed was 4 AA batteries, good lighting and strong lungs to blow out cartridges. Kids these days... 👾

Edit: Great work on the video btw!

Sounds like a System Manager with Umbrella challenge!!!

Great idea on the video.... like that your testers verified it worked!😀

[danhosking]

They thought it was funny at first, until they understood what it meant for the long term!!

[BrechtSchamp]

You let them cooperate on the video only to tell them afterwards that it was serious? That is kinda evil.

[danhosking]

Wait untill they are teenagers and their mobile devices are locked down! 😀
