About
My name is Jimmy Harris. I am an Application Engineer for a company that distributes management software for school districts within the US and Canada. Most of my job involves installing, configuring and administering MySQL, Java, Apache Tomcat, Red Hat Linux, Windows, IVR-based products, project management and writing technical documentation.
I live in Orlando, Florida, am very happily married and have two sweet baby girls. I enjoy spending all of the time I can with my wee family. Other than that I am busy with Ubuntu, music and great wine.
I have been using Ubuntu since the release of 5.04 Hoary Hedgehog and I have been playing catch up ever since. Not too long ago I purchased a laptop from System 76 that I am very proud of it mostly because it ships with my favorite Linux distribution - Ubuntu.
Even though I have worked with and have personally tinkered with various flavors of Linux (SuSe, Fedora, Mandriva, Arch, et al) none have matched the richness of Ubuntu. I have truly made Ubuntu an undeniable part of my life. I am committed to advocating the use of Ubuntu in my community.
