Who am I?
I'm currently 25 years old, and I work as a Systems Engineer in the Services unit at Red Hat, Inc.
I graduated in 1996 with a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Washington, in Seattle, WA.
In 1998, I married my girlfriend of 3 years, Michelle. We currently live in Cary, NC. We used to live in Denver, CO, and hope to get back there sometime.
When I'm not at work, I'm enjoying time with my two dogs, Aslan and Minna, and getting things straightened out. in our new house.
About Linux...
Linux is a premier UNIX-like operating system available for a wide range of processor types. I currently use Linux regularly on both the x86 and Alpha processor platforms.
