==Who Am I?==
+
==Sean Ellefson==
  
I am a Reuse Program Coordinator for Laptops and Desktops, a Technocrat, and a Half ASS.  Before being hired on at Free Geek, I was a volunteer Desktop & Server Build Instructor and Advanced Tester.  I completed my BS in Mathematics at PSU (more or less) as of Spring 2011.  I like short walks to work, burritos, C, Bash, Minecraft, Nethack, Neal Stephenson, John Steinbeck, Robert Heinlein (guiltily), Feminism, and kittiesMy kitty's name is Finch, and he has acquired a taste for my blood.
+
I volunteer in Hardware Grants, Technocrats, Server Build, and occasionally Desktop Build.  Before that I used to work hereBefore ''that'' I used to volunteer as an instructor in Desktop and Server Build, Advanced Testing (now Hardware Testing), Tabling, and Technocrats.  ''Before that'' I goofed off on the Recycling Bench.
  
I can currently be found running frantically between the Wine Cellar, Laptops, Desktops, Tech Support, and everywhere in between.
