Hi Alvin,
Welcome to Fedora marketing! Things are quiet this week due to
Christmas and New Year celebrations in some parts of the world. In
marketing, we hope to get your journey off to a great start. One of
the roles is to provide material and information for ambassadors, so
linking between the two groups would be very helpful. We are likely
to change the current meeting time early next year - it is currently
on Tuesdays from 9:00am to 10:00am US eastern time, hope you can
make it then.
Regards,
Benson

I decided to try and get involved with the Fedora Project
around
2014. I always wanted to get into Linux growing up; however,
I never
was able to get my network/wifi card to work. Luckily when I
tried
again a few years ago, I was lucky to have a brand that
worked with
the default drivers - I was finally able to begin my journey
and
start learning after all these years.
My jobs revolved around data centers for most of my I.T.
career.
Recently it has been with VMware and SAP. Since we’re a
heavy RHEL
shop, I chose Fedora to help me further develop my skills.

Initially I wanted to try and
join the package maintainers group but I couldn’t think
of anything that was open-source and not yet in the
repos. As of today, I still can’t think of anything! But
I’ve been lurking at #fedora-admin to see if there’s
anything I can help with since I’m currently in
Infrastructure related duties at work.

Since I’m still new to the Fedora Community, I decided
to be a part of the Ambassadors Project to try and share
to others what Linux is, to not be scared of it, and to
learn it through the use of Fedora. It helped me improve
my system administration skills and confidence and I
wanted to give back to the community that helped me
achieve that.

Since I want to be involved with the Ambassador
Project, I thought I should be involved with Marketing
as well since they go hand and hand. I would love to
help as much as I can but would probably like to work
helping clean the wiki first. After a few weeks of
attending the meetings and hearing the events going on
within Fedora, hopefully I’ll learn enough to be able to
branch off and help with other parts of Fedora’s
marketing strategies.
Please help me get started! :)
-Alvin
