== Introduction


With my passion for tech combined with my *18 years* of professional Linux/UNIX experience (*21 years* hobbyist), I've learned a few
tricks around the ol' rodeo. Because of my adherence to and knowledge of best practices, care for forward-thinking, and
sheer joy I take in solving potentially difficult problems, it is my goal (and particular knack) to get your company's
infrastructure and services smooth and stable while retaining flexibility for vast growth.

I have directly applicable experience with, and seek out opportunities in, systems operations in the following roles:

* Linux Systems Engineer
* Linux Systems Administrator
* Infrastructure Architect
