the LOT team


Beck

Chief Executive Officer, Creative Director, co-founder

You might know him as the "guy who doesn't shut up about Linux & Open Source!" — and you'd be right. Beck has spent 17 of his 28 years in higher education and public service as a Linux & Open Source advocate, user, and instructor. Being threatened with his job — more than once — for speaking up about saving taxpayers money has only made him double down and fight harder. And the world is finally waking up.

That fight led Beck to co-found learnOPENtech (LOT), a white-glove business solutions company that uses Linux & Open Source to help organizations free themselves — and their customers — from vendor lock-in and tech companies that just data-mine and sell their data. LOT believes everyone, customer or not, deserves privacy and security.
