I work for the Department of the Army as a Simulations/System Analyst. I've worked for the Dept. of the Army since 2001. Before that, I spent 10 years active duty in the U.S. Army. I worked as a logistician and also as a software/hardware technician. During my service with the Army, I lived in South Korea for 4 years, where I learned to read/write Hangul (the Korean language). Other tours of duty included stays/assignments/deployments at Ft. Sill, Oklahoma, Ft. Chaffee, Arkansas, Ft. Lewis, Washington, Ft. Lee, Virginia, Camps Red Cloud, & Casey, South Korea, 1996 Olympic Games Security Force Support, Atlanta, Georgia, Hunter Army Airfield & Ft. Stewart, Georgia, Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas, a two year assignment with the University of Kansas Army ROTC, Lawrence, Kansas, and a tour at Camp Phoenix (Kabul), Afghanistan.

Skill Areas
Trained teacher, trainer, and leader. I've been providing training to both civilians and military personnel for almost two decades. I've not only taught computer systems, but also martial arts, combat training skills, and personal development courses. I believe my background in a variety of training areas, teaching a variety of people from all walks of life, gives me the diversity and experience to work as an ambassador for fedora.
