Hi Everyone,

Filming in Progress.pngMy name is Jim Meegan and I am a Sr. Videographer and Editor with Red Hat Training. I produce, shoot, edit, and help deliver a lot of what you see in our Video Classrooms and Technical Overviews. I've been with Red Hat for almost 2.5 years and our videos have evolved a great deal over that time. However, we are always looking to make improvements and want to keep raising the bar! Feel free to reach out to me with comments, suggestions, and questions regarding Red Hat Training's Video Classrooms and/or Tech Overviews.

Thanks,

 ~ Jim

I'm Tracy Baker. I am a professor at Estrella Mountain Community College in Avondale, Arizona (just outside Phoenix). I am responsible for our Red Hat Academy where we teach RH124, RH134 and RH254.

Personally, I've been in the industry in almost every capacity (Architect, SysAdmin, NetAdmin, virtualization, PC break/fix, etc.) for the last thirty years. I've been a professor for the last three. I'm a veteran, serving in the US Navy as an electronics technician.

I'm excited to see this space. I truly believe that the human space is just as important as the technical space.

Hello,

I'm a newb to RHA, my name is Debra Dyer, I'm a Professor at Columbus State Community College, Columbus, Ohio [approx. 28,000 students.]  I'm the Lead for the Information Technology Support Technician [ITST] Program.  There are about 400 students currently in the program.  ITST technical courses are tied to A+, Network +, Security +, and Linux Essentials.  I'm currently using Raspberry Pi's to facilitate hands-on experiences for the students.

Prior to entering Academia, I was a Network Admin for the State of Ohio.  My first Cert was Novel.  ;-)   I'm looking forward to seeing how to incorporate Red Hat into the Curriculum.

First of all, thanks for this awesome initiative!
I'm based in Stockholm Sweden but travel and operate in many regions, both for business and pleasure.
I've been in the IT business for ~20 years, consulting in storage, backups, unix/Linux, architect, trusted advisor, risk assessment, team building, etc. Currently focusing on software defined storage.

My favorite training is Ceph-125, and the Ceph Break & Fix class.

I'd love to contribute with my thoughts and knowledge and I'm sure I'll learn a lot from my peers in this forum too.

Sharing is caring!

My name is Marc Richter, I've been with Red Hat as an employee since 2015 but was a Linux engineer using their fine stuff for a few years prior. Ok, more like a decade. I feel old sometimes.

My day job is Senior Technical Account Manager. Essentially, I'm a subscription that helps my 5 or so accounts use their Red Hat products better. I've blogged about that --> https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/being-technical-account-manager-tam-day-life

When not working, I play all sorts of games. Computer games, board and card games, a weekly D&D campaign...games are awesome.

When not working or playing games, I'm a Scout leader...my son is a few requirements away from getting his Eagle, so that's cool.

I've been married...well, let's just say for a long time. Two of my daughters are in college, both doing better than I did. My wife and I also decided that 3 dogs and a cat needed to be added to the household, because 4 kids wasn't enough. We might be kinda dumb.

Glad to be here.
