Hello all! I'm Roy Williams. I am one of just a handful of Red Hat Consultants located in WV. I am a platform consultant, so my day is usually spent working on Satellite or other platform/infrastructure products. I am also very passionate about IdM/FreeIPA.
In my spare time I play firefighter and some times teach others how to be firefighters.
Hello All,
My Name is Satyajit Bulage and I am Quality Engineer in CFME.
Right now I am RHCA-III. Linux enthusiasts. Want to explore more on Automation domain including Containers. :)
Who I am:
I'm a Berto short for (Alberto), a Senior Consultant with Red Hat specializing in deploying specializing Red Hat OpenStack. I've been at Red Hat for a very short amount of time of approximately 6 months. I am excited to be part of this community as I am a strong believer in sharing, mentoring, and fostering the growth of aspiring technical professionals as well as experienced professionals seeking to switch their disciplines. I have been working exclusively with Linux since 2005 which contains a journey through a number of technologies and disciplines since then. I have been focused on OpenStack as a practice since the Juno release and look towards to contribute as well as learn about any future topics relating to Linux, OpenStack, Ceph, IDM and Satellite.
Where I'm based:
Tampa, FL
My workstation:
Lenovo Thinkpad | Fedora 27
The discipline I enjoy the most is:
OpenStack of course as it is my primary discipline professionally, however I am focused on Ceph heavily it is my next certificate of expertise as well as my chosen secondary discipline. In general I enjoy finding and fixing broken stuff, you know, just finding that needle in the haystack as they say.
Highest Red Hat Certification:
Not quite an RHCA yet, however I am one certificate of expertise away from that accomplishment. My current set of certifications look as the following:
RHCSA
RHCE
RHCSA in Red Hat OpenStack
RHCE in Red Hat OpenStack
RH Certificate of Expertise in Virtualization
RH Certificate of Expertise in Ansible
What do I do a in my spare time ?
What spare time ? We have an 11 month old that takes all of spare time :-).
I look towards contributing to the community and thank you for your introductions ( Yes, I read them all).
Howdy all, I'm Nicole Baratta the Content Strategist for AMQ 7. Have been working in open source (both communities and for companies) for over 10 years now. I was one of the first opensource.com community moderators and have published a few books on technologies for libraries (under the name Nicole Engard).
I'm based in Austin, TX with my 2 shelties and 1 cat.
In my spare time, I act as the director of ChickTech Austin, a local nonprofit that works with high school girls to introduce them to careers in technology.
I am George Hacker (yeah, that's my actual surname). I have been involved with Red Hat Training as a contractor or employee for 18 years. I have been a Red Hat employee over 11 years.
I have instructed various RHCE-level and RHCA-level courses. I have been an author of many of those courses. I am currently a manager of the Curriculum Development team at Red Hat.
