Been on openbroadband waitlist since it <br /> opened up! <br /> Almost 30 years experience in customer support, training, and consulting of network operating <br /> systems and information security including 21 years as a Red Hat Certified Trainer. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> As a small business owner and educator, I am painfully aware of how good internet connection <br /> is both a necessity and privilage at the moment. Surveys about why I dont have broadband all <br /> focus on the cost. They neglect to collect data on the simple availability at any cost. Fiber in the <br /> development a mile away means my area is considered covered and expansion is unnecessary <br /> (which is so not true). <br /> Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: <br /> Female, small business owner, technically savey and telco aware but not specifally working in <br /> telco. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br />
