Awesome Community Chef Awards – 2016
// Chef Blog

The Chef community is full of many awesome individuals who contribute and do exceptional things every day. Each year at ChefConf, individuals are awarded the Awesome Community Chef award. The Awesome Community Chef awards are a way for the community to recognize a few of the individuals who have made a dramatic impact and have helped further the cause.

Four individuals received the Awesome Community Chef award this year at ChefConf.  Join Nathen Harvey (@nathenharvey), VP of Community Development, and this year's Awesome Community Chefs in a roundtable discussion about the Chef Community during our Awesome Community Chefs webinar on Tuesday, September 20 at 10:00AM PDT.

Mike is a person who fosters the growth of others, especially in the DevOps Community. Mike is there for people when they need answers on IRC/Slack/Twitter, man you name it. Mike gives you the understanding that great things can be accomplished in technology by trying. You may fail, but at least you try. Mike is an ear, Mike is a mind, Mike is a heart.

Stuart Preston

Stuart (@stuartpreston) is a dedicated, passionate, energetic Chef community member.  He will work through the night, through the weekend, through holidays. He solves technical problems at what feels like the speed of light for us mere mortals. He takes ownership and will never fail to investigate an issue, or reply to a PR. No matter where he is or what he's doing. He takes time on twitter to seek out people who are struggling and he helps them, even the ones who are working with our competitors! Stuart is selfless to a fault and committed to community above competition. And on top of all this, his contributions are really bloody useful.  Awesome work on Chef & Azure Integration.

Some of the projects Sutart works on include:
