Justin Garrison is both a student and a teacher. A senior systems engineer in the media industry, he has boiled his experience and wisdom, as well as that of his co-author Kris Nova, into the book [Cloud Native Infrastructure](http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920075837.do). He talks to [Craig and Adam](https://kubernetespodcast.com/about) about the Kubernetes community and the process of writing.
