I am particularly interested in promoting open source education beyond the college level: elementary schools, high schools, libraries and community centers. I am the team contact for the Ubuntu DC LoCo and one of the hosts of the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) Learning Club DC. I’m not knowledgable about hardware hacking but very excited by the FOSH (Free Open Source Hardware), hackerspaces and Fab Labs.
