I'm in my mid 30's but am considered senior level in general IT fields. I was a hobbyist with Linux for a long time, now it's my job and I love it. I've done federal contracting nearly all of my career. I'm working on a Cloud Computing bachelors degree from WGU-the AWS Track. I love learning new technologies. I want to get my RedHat Architect within 3 years also become CASP+ and AWS Certified Architect-Professional. Keep up with my certs on my credly profile linked below.
I'm working on building a business to help regular jane's and joe's like myself in my community to build a private on-prem cloud(Nextcloud) in their own home on their own hardware and help them regain their privacy again in this ever-more privacy encroaching world.
I've got a beautiful family with 5 kids and my lovely sweet wife.
I'm an Openstreetmapper, mostly via StreetComplete from FDroid.
I love the outdoors, especially with my family. Hiking, Bowhunting, fishing, mountain-climbing
