About Me
I've been using Ubuntu since Fall 2007. I prefer Xubuntu as my Ubuntu of choice. I have been using Linux based systems since Dec 1999. Before that, I used Unix type systems for several years as well. I'm a PHP web application developer by day.

Testimonials
Micah has consistently been present and active on bug-control, and is very helpful and accommodating on calls for help in the IRC channels. Of the many people I have helped in #ubuntu-bugs and bug-control, he is certainly the one I am proudest of having helped. He is, without a question, one I heartly endorse for Ubuntu membership. And that's not even talking about his work with the Mozilla team! --Hggdh
