I enjoy sharing my knowledge and empowering people with technology. I have been a systems administrator for 12 years, worked in web design for 10 years, and have presented technical courses for a wide variety of topics to age groups from children to seniors.
In 2007, I branched off the 8 year old http://linuxchic.net website by starting the weekly tech show, http://alternageek.com which focuses on a broad range of technology subjects.
Topics I prefer include WordPress, LAMP, Linux, systems administration, VMware virtualization, podcasting, and blogging.

Previous Presentations: 
Podcamp MidWest 2008: Introductory and Advanced WordPress
Ongoing courses at local Community Colleges
