I currently handle the IT support for a large local business. Although I use Windows everyday, you will find I try to use Linux and open source software anytime I can. I use Linux at home on several RPI2 devices and computers. I dabble in audio still but IoT has become a passion of mine recently. I am currently studying for The Linux Foundation System Administrator certification.

When I am not working on computers or IoT devices, you will find me outside on my family farm. Yes, you heard right. I love spending time with my wife and children on the farm. They are the reason I do what I do everyday.

You can usually find mind on LinkedIn. Send me an email any time.

At first, I couldn't understand why you would want 2 streams of music from one source. But after reading the article, I could see why. I am what some call an audiophile as I spent most of my adult career in home automation and 2-channel stereo setups. However, for someone who travels or wants to not disturb everyone, this is a great alternative to having dedicated equipment. Great read!

The "My Linux Story" and "My Open Source Story" are my favorite columns. It shows that the open source community is a vast diversity. And you're right Drew....the beginning is always just part of the phases we encounter in Linux and Open Source. Great read!
