About me

My name is Jim, and I've been using Ubuntu since March of 2006. Although I had some experience with other distributions since the Red Hat 9 days, Ubuntu was the first GNU/Linux distribution that got me "hooked" on Linux.

I studied communication in school, and was a four-year member of my university's speech and debate team, but developed other interests and eventually found work in Human Resources. I currently perform implementations of HRMS systems for companies with between 100-1000 employees.

Outside of work and social activities, I'm a participating member of the [:ChicagoTeam:Ubuntu-Chicago] LoCo team and the [http://www.chicagolug.org Chicago GNU/Linux User Group]. My main Ubuntu-related contributions are currently centered on Xubuntu documentation and the Ubuntu-Chicago LoCo team.
