Phil Hajjar

Phil is usually seen making things work together that shouldn’t be, but need to be. He describes himself as a marriage counselor for software and other technology systems. He appropriated this moniker way back in college as he first experimented with making disparate software work together back then, and he continues doing so in his over 20 years of professional IT experience now. When Phil isn’t making disagreeable software work in a cooperative fashion, he’s teaching things like Python and Linux Administration, as well as dabbling in new technology fields like cybersecurity and virtualization. He’s always looking for emerging technology trends to dabble in.

Highlights
  • I enjoy the challenge that comes with researching a topic that is new to me. I've been to derive direct professional benefits from some of the topics I researched and wrote about. I'm very grateful for any new research opportunity that comes my way.
Favorite Technology

Linux is my favorite technology. It helps to extend the life of desktops, laptops and even mobile devices which are no longer being supported by major OS developers anymore. There really isn't much you can't do with it.

Personal Quote
