All About Stefano

Stefano Rivera (tumbleweed) is a thoroughbred Debian-using Linux geek.

He was born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa as an almost-only-child (don’t ask, complicated family). He went to Michael Oak Waldorf School, and matriculated with distinction at Constantia Waldorf in 2003.

After a year out, teaching B&W photography to girls in America, curbing virus outbreaks, and writing code for GetReel Digital Services in London, he returned to Cape Town to study at UCT. He graduated with a BSc in IT (Computer Engineering) in 2007.

In his spare time, he surfs the internet, climbs mountains, consults under the guise of Hybrid Computer Solutions, writes Python code, and tries to keep the local LUG in order.
