I am currently an aspiring sysadmin and have been a Fedora user since Fedora Core 1. When I'm not putting out fires on the IRC network I help operate I'm learning web application development using Python.
I’m Nick, and I’m a self-employed (though also looking for full time work) web and mobile applications developer. I’m a huge supporter of open source as both a development model, and as a philosophy. Typical things that get me excited are Linux, The Web, Android, SoC (system on a chip) and a good cup of coffee.
I like to stay active in my local community as well. I help local non-profits design cost effective IT solutions using Linux and open source.  


I should mention I love good coffee :D
I have been working with computers and the web ever since I was little. I still remember the Christmas when I got my first computer an a “Learn HTML” book with it. Ever since then I have been in love with technology and creating awesome software.
 
I came to Fedora only recently, switching back and forth between Fedora and Ubuntu with Fedora 16 and I am now using Fedora as my main workstation with this great Fedora 18 release.

A Little About Me

I’m Nick, and I’m a self-employed (though also looking for full time work) web and mobile applications developer. I’m a huge supporter of open source as both a development model, and as a philosophy. Typical things that get me excited are Linux, The Web, Android, SoC (system on a chip) and a good cup of coffee.

I have been working with computers and the web ever since I was little. I still remember the Christmas when I got my first computer an a “Learn HTML” book with it. Ever since then I have been in love with technology and creating awesome software.

I came to Fedora only recently, switching back and forth between Fedora and Ubuntu with Fedora 16 and I am now using Fedora as my main workstation with this great Fedora 18 release.
