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.

Long ago, I figured out tat I was more visual learner than a hearing it learner. Having tutorials like Anderson Silva's on the Christmas lights working with the RPI helps many people, including myself. It;s the old cliche.... seeing is believing, but in my instance its what helps me understand how things work.

It was great that it became open source but this close to the end of the year.... I would have to say that not enough people have used it prior to it being open sourced....IMHO.
