After closing the magazine ( I had no intention of going into debt for a business) I took my Linux passion back home as a hobby. In 2007 I re-entered the academia, setting my sights on a BSACS for applied computer science from NAU (Northern Arizona University). I got to start over on all of my credits from De``Vry, since none of the credits can be transfered out. Which was a good thing because I had the opportunity to become well versed with Open``Office.org. I am currently seated as the Vice President of [[http://www.mohave.edu/pages/1128.asp|MC4]].

1998 -1999 The Xipe Project was a web development company, focusing on using LAMP to deploy Point of Sale systems, and integrating these with the businesses shopping sites.
While attending DeVry, I helped found Linux@DeVry (1998), it was our local Linux users group. I left DeVry and Atlanta towards the end of 1999, to move back to Kingman AZ.
1999 -2001 Upon arriving in Kingman we opened a Linux Store front, Mohave Linux Systems (tuxpc.com). Modeling it after a favourite store in Atlanta, GA -- the Linux General Store. The idea was to provide home users with low cost Linux PCs, and businesses with firewalls and network security. The Mohave Linux Systems store front closed in August 2000. From there I have worked as a Chef, Bus Driver, and Magazine Editor.
2004 - 2005 (the Scene as it came to be known)
2007 - Present After closing the magazine I took my Linux passion back home as a renewed hobby. In 2007 I re-entered the academia, setting my sights on a BA Studio art and a MFA from NAU (Northern Arizona University). I am currently seated as the Vice President of MC4. MC4 is the Computer Club at Mohave Community College, we organize computer recycling events (add link) and host LAN parties for the community ( and a little fragging helps a person regain the focus).

Past Involvement and History
Xipe Project
DeVry Decatur
During this time, I worked at a company deploying video surveillance systems, for Day Care centers. Managing 60 remote sites: Linux servers connecting to Axis IP cameras, and posting the image feeds to our web servers back in Atlanta. The core ideals of the project were sound, letting parents view their children, and monitor the activities there over the web from work or home. This is where I built my first self installing CDROM based on the Red Hat distribution. Mohave Linux Systems
The Tri State Scene
The Tri-State Scene came to life in 2004, and lived in tens of thousands of homes around Northern Arizona through 2005. A magazine printed in tabloid format on an offset printer in CMYK. All of this magazine was developed in Linux using Scribus, GIMP, Inkscape, and the assorted text editor (woot to VI). 10,000 copies were distributed to Kingman, Bullhead City, and Lake Havasu City, Arizona. This was also when I first had the opportunity to sample Ubuntu, which was a fantastic install on my Dell laptop, with a 600 mhz processor. Giving me the ability to edit and write from the road.
