About Me

I am 51, a divorced father of two, and grandfather to five grand-children.BRBR I spent 22 1/2 years in the U.S. Army and retired in 1997. Throughout my time in the military, I gained an invaluable and extensive background in installing, testing/troubleshooting, and inspecting Military and Government communications systems and facilities. Since retiring I have worked as a Network Operations Center Manager for a major Internet backbone provider in Maryland, an installation/troubleshooting/support supervisor for a commercial communications design and installation firm in Virginia, a Telecommunications Center Manager for a major Military Communications Contractor in Sunnyvale, CA, and dabbled in other miscellaneous endeavors, including some independent web designing.BRBR I am a native of Tucson, and returned here in 1999. I currently work for a local distribution company. In my spare time I enjoy various activities including (but not limited to) traveling, camping, hiking, bowling, tinkering with computers (troubleshooting/upgrading), a little computer gaming, listening to music, and watching the History channel. I am an avid outdoor sportsman, both fishing and hunting.BRBR I am an active member of the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArizonaTeam Ubuntu-Arizona LoCo] team, and the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArizonaTeam/Teams/Membership Ubuntu_Arizona Membership] sub-team. Using computers has become a 20+ years hobby of mine. Over the years I have built and repaired computers for friends and associates, as well as myself. I have been an on again/off again *nix user for over 20 years (mostly Unix during my military days). I have been learning and using Ubuntu Linux since Hoary (May 2005), and never looked back. Ubuntu Linux has been the most stable, and usable desktop operating system I have found to date.BRBR

Things I do, or want to accomplish, for Ubuntu

Support

Arizona Team Stuff

United States of Ubuntu

  • Ubuntu This is an exciting venture in collaboration between LoCo teams in the United States. I want to assist in this project and become mentor. Read more about The United States of Ubuntu [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USTeams/ US Teams]

Advocacy

  • Ubuntu As a team member of the Arizona membership sub-team, I am working toward developing community awareness of Ubuntu Linux, how ever and when ever the opportunity lends itself. I have also given my information as a contact for questions and/or face to face support to anyone I have given a copy of the Ubuntu Linux CD's.

    Ubuntu I always carry a few Ubuntu Linux CD's around with me to convert the willing and curious. I have given out several Ubuntu Linux CD's to friends and associates.

My Future with Ubuntu

  • Ubuntu Work with the Ubuntu project to increase LoCo teams awareness and membership. Hopefully every state will have a LoCo team by 2008.

    Ubuntu Work with the Ubuntu-Arizona LoCo community to continue to improve the project.

    Ubuntu Assist in developing a working face to face support network within the Arizona Loco Team.

    Ubuntu Provide support and help to others on Ubuntu Forums as much as possible.
