About

A leopard can carry twice its body weight into a tree. Now if you hate reading this, at least you can walk away knowing you’ve learned something.

Dustin has one goal, to crack that smile of yours.

He is a very active & spontaneous individual, and lives for the daily excitement thrown into his world. He has a passion for bikes… Motorcycles, cycling to work, etc. Dustin grew up riding BMX bikes. Yes he is that good looking rider you saw upside down at the MN State Fair, Chicago Dew Tour, etc.

The real world? You got it. 4 years at college, 5 years in IT at a high-performance distribution company, and recently instructing at a technical college. Dustin has also started a few businesses with a handful of partners to keep him entertained.

“Well, Dustin, you exceeded my wildest hopes with your final. You scored 279 points (out of 200), which I didn’t think was possible. With performance like that, there was no way to escape getting an A in the class. In fact, when curving the final, I had to exempt your score from the calculations because it was skewing the numbers too far. At the rate you’re going, I expect you to surpass my own PHP knowledge in a few months (if you haven’t already done so). I appreciate your tolerance and patience with version 1.0 of the class, and really enjoyed having you as a student. I’d love to have you in one of my Linux classes down at EP. I think you’d like it a lot. If you ever need a professional or academic reference, I would be happy to fill that role. Have a great summer! Jeremy” -Graduating college with a bang. Spring 2006.

“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. They have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
