I currently handle the IT support for a large local business. Although I use Windows everyday, you will find I try to use Linux and open source software anytime I can. I use Linux at home on several RPI2 devices and computers. I dabble in audio still but IoT has become a passion of mine recently. I am currently studying for The Linux Foundation System Administrator certification.
When I am not working on computers or IoT devices, you will find me outside on my family farm. Yes, you heard right. I love spending time with my wife and children on the farm. They are the reason I do what I do everyday.
You can usually find mind on LinkedIn. Send me an email any time.

The world of home automation is a changing. I spent a good deal of my adult life in the home automation field. I have seen it change from a few controlled light in the home theater to controlling most everything in the home. Most of the stuff I dealt with was proprietary software, such as Elan, Crestron, Lutron Radio Ra2, and RTI Remote.
I have worked some with LinuxMCE. It was once considered the Crestron killer but never really took off.
With the use of Zwave and Zigbee technology, and to some degree Bluetooth, it is amazing to see where home automation came from to where it is now. The possibilities are endless.
Another great write-up Anderson!
