'''About Me''' | |||

| style="border: 0px solid white;" | | |||
I have been a Linux user since 1999, starting with RedHat (was it Valhalla or Engima? I'm not sure), before experimenting with Mandrake and SuSE, and then going back to RedHat 9 for some time and also spending several years with Gentoo Linux. My first encounter with Fedora was working at a well-known hosting company who happened to have Fedora Core as their only Linux flavor. To be honest I continued using Gentoo on my workstation: I was obsessed with over clocking my computer and trying to squeeze all the performance I could get from my computer at the hardware level and at the software level. | I have been a Linux user since 1999, starting with RedHat (was it Valhalla or Engima?

Right now I feel that I have the time and the knowledge to collaborate with this great community; Unlike my other strengths in I know my building and packaging skills are not at the same level, I know the basics about spec files, pre and post install scripts and love it so far. I am more than willing to learn more, for I am fast and strong learner. I also have system administration skills that involve migrating web applications, identifying and troubleshooting bugs, automating tasks and managing systems, plus I have been using Fedora for the last 3 years on my work station. | Right now I feel that I have the time and the knowledge to collaborate with this great community; Unlike my other strengths in I know my building and packaging skills are not at the same level, I know the basics about spec files, pre and post install scripts and love it so far.

As a former NSLU2 Linux enthusiast I am used to working with low resource systems (32MB of ram and 133MHz) as well as optimizing the OS and applications for this purpose. | As a former NSLU2 Linux enthusiast I am used to working with low resource systems (32MB of ram and 133MHz) as well as optimizing the OS and applications for this purpose. | ||
Despite having a sysadmin profile, I am also a people person: I speak English even though I am originally from Venezuela. I moved to Miami back in 2002, so my native language is Spanish, and I also understand and speak some Portuguese and Dutch. | Despite having a sysadmin profile, I am also a people person: I speak English even though I am originally from Venezuela.
