I'm a [[Ambassadors|Fedora Ambassador]] sponsored by [[JoergSimon|Jörg Simon]]
My main goals in my work as an Ambassador is taking Fedora to schools and other educational institutes and talk about the advantages of open source software in educational environments.
+
I also want to show schools how to get their students started for contributing in open source projects and help them convey the spirit that fuels the open source community.

== Education ==
+
Due to my involvement in the administration of my schools network I became interested in developing and deploying network solutions aimed at the needs of schools.
+
The specific needs of a school in terms of user and systems management as well as network security are yet to be combined into a software solution that can be installed, deployed and maintained by the average high school teacher.
+
I therefor envision a "Fedora School Server" that gives schools the required tools to manage a modern and secure network. This is a very basic requirement for the successful use of information technology in education that is not covered by any open source solution on the market yet.
+
Once the network aspect is done I hope to continue on integrating educational services and platforms.
