I'm a 30 year old father of three living in Ohio. I am not in a technical field in my profession, and using computers has become a hobby of mine. I build and repair computers for friends and associates. I have been using Ubuntu since Hoary (may 2005), and never looked back. Ubuntu was my first experience with Linux, and I am thankful it was shown to me. Helping fix Bug #1 has been a priority of mine since my first install. = About Me =

= IRC Council =
I have been an active part of the community for several years. Most of this time I have been on IRC, in several Ubuntu Channels. Although I have never been an op on an official Ubuntu Channel (other than #ubuntuforums... and I'm not sure if that counts or not) I have been a volunteer for freenode for about two years now.

I enjoy spending time helping out on IRC. Since I wear ( or have worn ) many hats in the community, I feel I could bring a unique perspective to the Council. I strongly believe in conflict RESOLUTION, and working towards outcomes that are beneficial for all parties involved.

= Testimonials =

Craig A. Eddy (tyche): Steve is one of those strong people that tackles the tough jobs, and manages to get them done with no fanfare. He is helpful and considerate of others, gentle when he can be and tough when he has to be. I feel that he would be an exceptional addition to the IRC council, and would contribute from his knowledge and experience both from within the Ubuntu community and the freenode.net community.

J. Scott Gwin (scott_ev): Steve has not failed to help me yet. I have needed his help and advice several times starting with getting my IRC Nic registered. He has been knowledgeable and willing to help every time I've asked. His patience is second to none and his willingness to help cannot be refuted.

Steve A Peterson (azteech): Steve is one of those brave souls with the patience of Jobe. When the Arizona Team was struggling to get started, Steve stepped up to the plate to ensure we began on the right foot. He has always been there for the community, our team (and others) and fellow users. I have yet to see him fail to reach out to help someone in need. He is an extremely knowledgeable and capable individual. His patience is second to none and his willingness to help is top notch.
