About me.

Posted by AJS on April 12th, 2013.

I've been an enthusiastic user of Linux professionally and personally for over 10 years and am a founder member of the Coventry Linux users Group. I was originally drawn to Linux because of the way it worked better compared to other operating systems, the greater reliability and the huge range of applications and tools available.
My experience of Linux led to opportunities with Unix, and I have worked on Sun's Solaris, IBM's AIX and SGI's IRIX in a high performance computing environment.
Also, I have networking experience with Cisco IOS as well as TCP/IP, ethernet and other WAN protocols.

Professionally, I enjoy the problem solving side of my work, it is satisfying to deliver a solution working either as part of a team or on my own.
I'm motivated by trying to make things work better, either implementing a new solution or improving and existing one.

My Location

I live in Coventry, England. My ideal work location would be in Coventry, but I am happy to travel within the West Midlands / Warwickshire areas.
I am not interested in relocating to another area of the country, although for interesting contract work, I would consider finding temporary accomodation nearer a work location.
