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.

I never knew there was such an online magazine. I am glad I am a member of the community. Great story and THANK YOU for actually having the gumption to put out a great magazine.

LOL....understand what you mean. My father-n-law is that way too. I made a few MS machines for him over the years but finally switched him to Linux just over a year ago and he loves it. Now this man is a Southern farmer who does not like anything tech related. He still has a flip phone and he was hesitant on that even. I finally convinced him to give it a try and he hasn't had anything bad to say about Linux since then, or my technology either (lol).
