Current official contact for Ubuntu in the state of Utah. Original founder of the Ubuntu Utah Local Team. Working with local LUGs to help support, expand and advocate Ubuntu.

I've long been a programmer, but after getting an AS degree from SLCC in CIS I decided to go to film school at the U of U. I have been a perl programmer/web developer since 1997.

I have been using F/OSS since 2000, when I returned from an LDS mission. My brother, Hans, introduced me to Linux at that time. I'm a pragmatist -- I use Windows and other commercial software when necessary -- but I do prefer F/OSS when available and appropriate.

I've worked professionally as a computer programmer for eight years, with a two year haitus from 1998-2000. I currently do internal systems development at Prosper, Inc. in Provo. I am most familiar with web applications programming. I have extensive experience with web services technology.

I have been called a brand maverick. I build powerful, striking identities and manage brands with precision. I specialize in developing complete, visual solutions for the modern market by combining concept, strategy, creative structure and the ability to effectively deliver balanced technology and aesthetic. I am a Utah native and current reside in Lehi with my wife and daughter. An avid outdoorsman, artist, and musician, I am always challenging myself with adventures and projects. I am currently directing the creative team at Doba, developing campaigns, collatoral, and web application interfaces for a service that is revolutionizing the product sourcing industry.
