About Eric Siegel
 |
Eric Siegel was born in Urbana, IL in 1976. Within 1 year of his birth, his parents relocated to Atlanta, GA where Eric would spend the rest of his youth. In 1994, Eric Siegel left Atlanta to attend college at The University of Georgia in Athens, GA. He remained in Athens for nearly 7 years, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Anthropology. While attending college Eric pursued a career as a musician, playing the local circuit with the band 40 Acres for the entire length of his stay in Athens. As the internet boom of the 1990's took place, Eric taught himself website development skills in an effort to provide a website for his band. Those skills would continue to grow and would eventually become a career. In 2000 Eric Siegel graduated from UGA.
After graduating college Eric Siegel decided to put his computer skills to use and moved back to Atlanta where he took a technical support job at a large web hosting company. While working for this company, his skill set continued to grow. Eric Siegel would eventually begin to specialize in Unix/Linux systems administration. After 2 years of working as a system administrator with the hosting company, Eric began to work as a systems administrator and web hosting provider for a small number of clients under his own company, Cyberstrux, Inc. Within 2 years Eric Siegel had put together a large enough client base to enable him to leave the web hosting company and pursue his work with Cyberstrux, Inc. full time.
In addition to his work with Cyberstrux, Inc., Eric Siegel founded The Rocks Project and began to write website based tutorials for various Unix/Linux systems administration duties. The flagship website of these tutorials, qmailrocks.org, would grow into a community environment enabling thousands of people from around the world to exchange information and help regarding the installation of qmail.
In 2005, Eric Siegel met Danielle, his future wife, and they wed in May of 2006. In December of 2006, Eric and his new family moved into their first house in Woodstock, GA. In his spare time Eric enjoys hiking and camping with his wife and son, collecting and running O scale model trains, and collecting Zippo lighters and Swiss Army Knives.
