# [About me](https://new.dirk-janalken.nl/about-me)

   12th Feb 2021  

Thanks for looking at my personal blog!

My name is Dirk-Jan Alken and I'm an IT consultant from Zeewolde, the Netherlands. I'm working at ITQ as Technologist Private Cloud. Most of my time I work with VMware solutions (VCF,NSX,Operations), the most content on my blog will be about those things.

Next to IT stuff I like watching Formula 1 and movies/series on the different streaming platforms and I go for a run minimal once a week.

I'm a father of two boys, husband to a lovely wife and owner of two dogs and a cat.
