About me

  • 37 years old, English, and residing in St. John's, NL, Canada.
  • Currently working for a Telecommunications Company, managing Service Delivery team.
  • I am a Linux user since '93. I have used Slackware, Debian, Red Hat, Mandrake (Mandriva), Gentoo and now Kubuntu.
  • I have successfully switched many of my non-techie friends and family to Kubuntu, and now I am also running Kubuntu on the desktop and Ubuntu Server for some firewall and server needs.
  • I recently was involved in maintaining an overlay for Gentoo regarding special desktop enhancements and effects, some of which Kubuntu has recently integrated. The overlay was called Xeffects, and had many enhancements.

  • I have now been approved as a Kubuntu Member, a direct result of my help in updating packages necessary for Intrepid Ibex release.
