Other Stuff

I'm a high school student. I've been using Linux since 2002 , and actively involved in the Ubuntu Community since 2007.

Education

Some high school.

Ubuntu Stuff

I started using Ubuntu on "edgy", and, being a Ubuntu newbie, felt a compulsive urge to upgrade to the then-highly-unstable "Feisty Faun" while it was still in alpha. Then, in another act of grand stupidity, I upgraded to Gutsy 3~ months before release. I currently I co-administer JeffreyElkner 's lab at Yorktown ( I am an underling of MatthewGallagher ).

I also work on a python graphics API called GASP ( see http://edge.launchpad.net/gasp-code ) which I am working to package for Ubuntu (well, really watching MatthewGallagher).

Community Involvement

I'm a member of the DC Ubuntu LoCo Team and YHSLUG. I've setup Edubuntu/Ubuntu labs in the following locations in the DC metro area:

1. Yorktown High School, Arlington, VA - in the CS lab (http://linus.yhspatriot.net/cs).

I work in the BugSquad, as well as helping out in IRC.
