Hello all.

I am a System Engineer based in Costa Rica. I support the most common Unix/Linux flavors but currently working with RHEL only. Moving forward into RHEL 8. I do a lot of automation most used: shell scripting, python, perl and ansible.

It is great to be around and I hope I can learn a lot from you all.

Good to be here.

Hello all.  I may be a little late to the discussion, but glad to be on board.  I'm a professor in the Computer & Information Technology program at Marshall University.  We have a major with 3 areas of emphasis (web application development, game development, and computer application development) along with a computer science program and digital forensics program.  Looking to incorporate Red Hat curriculum within our Linux course, but also to other faculty and students outside of class.  What are your best practices for getting individuals interested and started?

Hi guys, this is Victor, greetings from Barcelona (Spain). I just subscribed to the standard training in here.

I've been working in different system administration areas for 18+ years already, last two dealing with projects using OpenShift (3.4-3.7) and IBM API Connect platform.

See you guys around

This seems to be the defacto template at this point, so I am going to use it as well

Who I am:

As my display name says, I am Joshua Hinton. I am a Consultant for Red Hat, and loving every minute of it!

Why I am here:

I recently got involved with the Red Hat Adopt and Academy program, and this learning community is one of the resources they promote. I would love to be able to direct more students here, and hope we can expand out to as many interested people as possible.

Where I'm based:

United States: Basically wherever my next project is based!

My workstation:

Lenovo Thinkpad T480s, running Fedora 29 (as of writing this).

My favorite tech topic:

Virtualization. I think it's an awesome concept in general, and I always love learning more about it and talking about it (by no means does this make me an expert).

Favorite Red Hat memories:

Tech Exchange 2018!

----------------------------------------

Looking forward to being involved with everyone here!
