I worked as an authorized auditor and financial reporting advisor for about 20 years, but quit prematurely due to health issues. As regards IT and computing I'm self-educated. During the first decade of this century I did some web programming, and since 2010 I have contributed to Ubuntu and later Debian with bug fixes and package maintenance.
Most of my work has been i18n related matters, but I have also helped to fix other kind of desktop bugs. I'm a member of Debian's Input Method and GNOME teams. I packaged ibus-avro and ibus-typing-booster.
