    Hi.
    
    Though it may shatter tradition, I'm not going to start off with my age.  I'm
    currently working as a sysadmin, and I'd like to narrow that focus down to
    security.  Here's a resume, but the basics are:
    
    -> UNIX (Solaris/HP-UX/Linux/FreeBSD/OpenBSD)
    -> Programming (Perl, Shell, C, light C++)
    -> Firewalls (Free-OS based)
