Hello my name is Sarah and I am glad to be a part of this community. I love to watch anything on Netflix and I love to eat lol! I am in school for cyber security and Red Hat is very new to me. I'm a tad overwhelmed but am excited for the semester.

Hello everyone, my name is Bettina and I am a student at Fayetteville Technical Community College working towards my degrees in Networking Management, Networking Administration, and Cyber Security. The only experience I have had was through the IT courses that I have taken and The dabbling in fixing/repairing software and hardware on my personally owned computers and every now and again my friend's desktop and laptop. As an individual, I am not too much of a people person so I figured this is the perfect career for me. I am self-motivated and an overachiever. I am a private and down to earth type. Other than that I plan on continuing my education by transferring to FSU. I look forward to all the new things that come with this semester and I am excited to get started. I hope everyone is staying safe. Have a wonderful and blessed day.

Hi,
I am Thomas from Austria. I first used RedHat Linux back in school in 2000. I did a upper secondary technical school, later graduated from University of Vienna in IT Management and had my first job in food processing automation. For the last 8 years I worked as IT Manager and teacher in the Austrian School System in K8 and K12.
This year I will have a new role as ambassador for the future learning lab in Vienna (www.futurelearning.at) and also will start my first own business.
I want to provide schools all over Austria and SMBs with high quality IT knowledge and help with processes and customization going digital.
I am here to get officially certificated and I am super excited on kubernetes and docker - as I see these as very promising eco friendly technological steps for the IT of the future.

Hi Everyone,

I am a student at Fayetteville Tech in the Systems Security and Analysis program. My background is more in Data Management and PC Repair which enjoyed but wanted more in technology.  So, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and learn a new path of technology. I don't have a strong foundation in using Linux but I do have some knowledge of Linux due to previous classes.  I am super excited to learn more about Linux through this Red Hat platform.

Introduction:

     Hello everyone, my name is Richard. Currently my background is in Pest Control and I am looking for a career change. My sister introduced me to a few courses while she was getting her degree and figured it looked interesting and something that I would like to do so here I am giving it a go. I do not have a whole lot of computer experience except the basics and a few courses I took last semester but I am looking forward to learning more. I don't have many fun facts about myself except that I worked in Iraq for a few years and in Afghanistan for 4 years as a contractor supporting the military and currently I am working in the Bahamas on a naval installation. The world of Covid has put a damper on in class learning so here I am taking online classes in order to better my knowledge of computers.
