Edward Dryer

Senior Technology Strategist

Anyone that know Ed, knows that he is a larger-than-life technology advocate. You could even say he was born into it. Using his passion for competitive gaming, Ed learned early in his teens on how to properly configure computers for optimal gaming performance, which opened the door to his first high-school job repairing computers for a small southside Chicago shop.

Favorite Quote: “Chance favors the prepared.”

Aside from some small career detours along the way—including a 6-month stint as a telemarketer for magazine subscriptions—Ed went on to beef up his resume with some noteworthy IT roles as a Security Analyst at Mayer Brown, LLP and as the Director of IT at Jewish Community Centers of Chicago. Today, when Ed is not presenting cloud at an industry trade show, he is working directly with Steadfast customers to design innovative and customer IT solutions.

Favorite Places: Chicago, IL | South Haven, MI | Sanibel, FL | London, England | New York City, NY

His passion for gaming has still never ceased. When he can’t escape to one of his favorite places to wind down, he goes back to his roots, favoring Ingress, board games, and of course, computer games.  When that doesn’t satisfy, he goes all Martha Stewart, making jam, jelly and pickles from scratch, as well as the occasional home brewed beer.
