Braden, welcome to the Fedora Project! It was great to see that you're also from Kitchener, where I am from too! I've lived in the US for about 15 years now, but get back there a couple times a year.
You might also be interested in joining the Fedora Ambassadors team (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors). Its good to see more folks from Canada joining. We're trying to grow the presence in Canada, so there is lots of opportunity if you want to get more involved.
Best regards,

Hello there,
My name is Braden Faulkner.
I live in Kitchener, Canada.
I am a Student at Huron Heights.
My goals in the Fedora Project are to join the marketing team, help spread the word and promote fedora and advertise so, the general public can become aware of the Fedora Project. Overall, my goal is to increase the number of people using fedora from day to day.
I like to talk about Linux, Open Source, Android, Fedora and generally anything that has to do with Electronics and Computers, especially Programming/Coding.
In Fedora I would like to see a Customized Gnome look that would make it a little more modern, similar to what the OpenSolaris project has done.
Something else I'd like to do is design large billboard ads or bus/bench ads that would be eye catching and creative. Launching an ad campaign would be something broader I may also want to do with these ads.
I have some marketing qualification. I have taking both a computer business course an a mainstream business course. I have also been to many camps that focus on promotion and creativity, also making commercials. I also, have participated in many (video) commercial making projects.
In the past I have worked on (video) commercial projects, creating posters and pressentations (Keynotes, PowerPoints, OO.org etc.).
I have slightly more than basic knowledge or marketing but not quite advanced knowledge. However, I have a enormous interest in marketing and would like to learn more and grow my knowledge, although I am actively working to do so, by taking some more advanced courses.
Other skills that might be applicable are my sense of humor (Could make for some creative and entertaining ads) and my creative way of thinking.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I wish you and the Fedora Community the best.
Thanks again, Sincerely, Braden Faulkner
