My name is Thien, but I mostly go by "Tommy" nowadays. I am an Linux system administrator around 4 years of experience. I am familiar with most major Linux families, from Red Hat to Debian to SUSE to Arch Linux. Recently, my interest has shifted to immutable distributions such as Fedora Silverblue/CoreOS and openSUSE MicroOS.
Like most Linux users, I am an open source enthusiast and publish most of the projects made in my free time on [GitHub](https://github.com/tommytran732) and [my own Gitea instance](https://git.tommytran.io/tomster). I also made a couple of small contributions to various projets on GitHub as well.
If you are active in the privacy communities on Matrix, you may recognize me. I used to be a collaborator for [PrivacyGuides.org](https://privacyguides.org) and wrote a large portion of the site from around October 2021 - July 2022. Now, I am now working on my own website - [PrivSec.dev](https://privsec.dev) - with a couple of friends I "met" through [GrapheneOS](https://grapheneos.org). Oh, while we are on this topic, I am also a moderator in the official GrapheneOS channels as well (though not a developer or project member). Or, you may just know me as that one guy who loves throwing a hypervisor at every problem he encounters, typical of a Qubes OS user.
