Who I am

Hi, I'm Leann Ogasawara. I'm a member of the Ubuntu Kernel Team and employed by Canonical. I originally started as the Ubuntu Kernel Team's QA/Triage Engineer but have since transitioned into a full Kernel Dev position. I've since been focused on helping with the stable kernel maintenance which includes processing CVE's, reviewing and applying upstream stable patch sets, and bug triaging/fixing.

My Ubuntu story

I got my first taste of Linux while attending college back in the early 2000's where our CS lab ran with Red Hat installations. As a recent college graduate, I was fortunate enough to land a job at the Open Source Development Lab where I began focusing on the kernel. I started with the usual kernel janitor work and also kernel QA. While at OSDL I began hearing about this new distribution called Ubuntu. I installed Dapper and have been a faithful Ubuntu user ever since. I was amazed at it's ease of use and that everything "just worked". In 2007 I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to come work for Canonical as a member of the Ubuntu QA Team and have since made a full transition to the Ubuntu Kernel Team.
