Welcome...

BrentRussell.com was primarily created to showcase the work I have done in IT for prospective employers. It also serves as an area to test out small side projects I am always creating.

I am a Systems Administrator and Software Developer currently in Orlando, Florida. I have senior role experience with Windows servers and Linux system administration including Apache, BIND DNS, MySQL etc. I prefer to work with Ubuntu however I have also worked with Suse, Red Hat Enterprise and Fedora. You can view my resume or my portfolio for past development projects I have been involved with.

I am a pretty talkative person and have a new idea everyday. Some are bad but there are always a few good ones. I am conversational with Spanish. I learned Spanish in LA so it is a breed of Columbian and Peruvian Spanish with a lot of Spanglish. I am not fluent yet but hope to be in a year or so.

I am a traveler! I have been to over 30 countries around the world and once traveled for 7 months straight. I have been to every continent except for Antartica. When I travel I try to stay away from the fish bowl experience and I try to become a local person. This is how I learn some of each language and way of life.

The list of places is always growing but here are the countries and the amount of time I spent in each:
