Greetings!


This email is to introduce myself and to list some notes about my experience.  I'm very excited about being a part of the Fedora Project and feel I have much to contribute.

My experience with computer systems dates to an old 8088 running MS-DOS 6.22.  Only in the last couple years have I made the switch to open source.  I would consider my experience with Linux and Unix systems to be fairly beginner to intermediate at this point.  I'm proficient on the command line and hope to grow my experience in scripting languages.

I hold an associates in applied sciences with a focus of computer networking.  During the day, I work as a support technician doing basic desktop support and network troubleshooting.  I'm part of a large team and I enjoy working and communicating with them daily.

My reason for joining the Fedora Project is both for personal enjoyment and for professional development.

I look forward to learning more about the infrastructure group and contributing to the Project in any way possible.



Thanks for your time,
