Life: an update

posted 28 Jul 2007

I have not blogged recently because of a number of life changes. I will try to fix that now that I have a steady location and job. To clear the air here is everything I have been doing in a chronological list.

  • Graduated from Oregon State University with a computer science degree.
  • Traveled to Vienna, Austria to visit Nisha George who is working for TTTech
  • Started working for SuSE Labs/Novell as a Kernel developer
  • Moved into a neighborhood (SE Portland) right next to Ron Jackson and Karla Beck! Ron has been a great mentor and worked with me on the Bob project
  • Went to a drive in theater for the first time, double feature of Die Hard 4 and Transformers, awesome!
  • Visited the only American owned sake brewery, Sake One, and bought a sake keg. :)
  • Went to OSCON and met a bunch of Novell and Debian people. Living in Portland is going to Rock!
  • Volunteering to help with the Linux Plumbers Conf

Life is good, I am having fun and I will be blogging again soon.

About

Brandon Philips by Mujtaba Ali

ifup.org is the weblog of Brandon Philips and contains excerpts from my code, work and play.

I write Linux software and work on the systems layer of Linux. In the last two years I have helped to organize Linux Plumbers Conf and Freedom HEC Taipei. It has been rewarding to bring together these communities to discuss current Linux issues.

Robotics is another passion and I had the opportunity to mentor a FIRST Robotics team in Portland recently too. I also continue to work with my friend Ron Jackson to build some neat USB devices for robotics.
