About Me

Hi! I'm Miriam. I'm a Computer Science Engineer that has been a Linux user since I install my first SuSE 4.0 at the University (I remember I spent 5 days on it, using 5 DVDs from a Tech Linux Magazine!), and I went through Fedora, CentOS, RedHat, Mandriva, LinuxMint, SuSE -again-, Debian and Ubuntu :).

I'm working at Canonical since Jul'21. Happy to be here :).
