Hello fellow contributors.
My name is Greg Krpan and I am looking to contribute to the Documentation Project.
In the past, most of my work has been as a SysAdmin, but I have also performed a number of documentation roles as well. My early documentation work was to document servers and data center configurations for disaster recovery planning, I have also been involved in the creation of a user manual to assist in employee migration from Novell Groupwise to Lotus Notes, along with associated training in order to familiarize users with the new application. I have been published twice for my work designing and constructing a Beowulf-class supercomputer for geographic modelling for the USGS.
My skill level with computers is high. I am comfortable with most any hardware configurations from PC's to mainframe, and anything in between. Most of my experience has been supporting midrange systems, primarily Dell PowerEdge (RHEL) IBM RS/6000 (AIX) and Sun UltraSPARC (Solaris). I build my own PC's for home use, and most recently operated my own computer consulting business where I promoted Fedora as the primary operating system.
In the role of a SysAdmin, I have had heavy interaction with users, and am able to communicate on any level from "newbie" to expert with confidence. I have also had call center experience, in which patience and the ability to calm a customer was paramount to providing a pleasant experience for the customer.
I am a good fit for the documentation project as I believe in providing the most complete documentation possible in order to allow users to become more self sufficient with their use of the Fedora and it's integrated components. I can break down a problem quickly and efficiently in order to develop and document a solution, and can relate that solution to any level of audience required.
