Relationship with Ubuntu
I first started using Linux back in 2005 when I was a senior in high school transitioning into college. At that time I was introduced to Mandrake Linux, and a love affair with Linux began. Over the years I've bounced around using Mandrake/Mandriva, Fedora, Debian, and finally Ubuntu. I've never had a particular distribution that I didn't like, but over the years I've realized that whenever I engage with the Ubuntu community I seem to get more of a response whether I'm asking for help, or offering it. The operating system is easy to use and the code of conduct is fairly straight-forward and easy to understand. I've been running Linux exclusively for years, and currently all the machines in my home run Ubuntu. Contributions to the Community
As a person with no real formal training in programming languages, I have always felt like I should give more to the Linux community as a whole. Since I don't have the skills to review and edit code, I've tried to be as helpful as I can in other ways. I've written walkthroughs, scripts to automate daily tasks, and I frequently visit various Linux forums including the Ubuntu Forums, Linuxquestions.org, and more so I can help newcomers to the Linux community as much as I can.
