Location
I’m in Ottawa, Canada ?? Right now I’m working from home too and usually in normal days I also work from home or usually a cafe. I do well with public spaces, you can call me the nomad developer ?

Job
I am a Developer Advocate with the office of the CTO. I work hand in hand with @marc @Aaron and @TomF baking some cool developer initiatives and events. In a nut shell, i am involved with enabling developers to using our product. On normal non-pandemic days you can catch me either online partaking in virtual activities, cruising around reddit on tech forms, writing technical blogs on dev.to or traveling around giving talks at conferences, meetups and events ? I am also super involved with doing POC’s and projects with other technologies, tools and frameworks to see how they integrate with Solace :high_voltage:

Apart from Solace, I am also the Director of Community Engagement and Partnerships at a non-profit organization called Connected Canadians. We are involved with increasing digital literacy for older adults and teaching them how to use technology better. I am very passionate about our vision and what do to contribute back to the seniors community in Ottawa. You can check out our website to now more, and if you want to watch cute testimony videos of seniors talking about their experiences with technology (phones and computers)! ???

For fun
I am an AVID gif user ? catch me pulling out a gif for literally any situation . You know how they say a picture is worth a 1000 words? Well I believe that a gif is worth 1001 words! I just feel like you can explain a situation or reflect how you feel without needing to type anything, ya know?! Here is a gif for ya’ll

party gif

Now what is YOUR fav gif?? I accept gif challenges.
Also, as you can probably tell by now, I like using emojies quite often as I believe they are worth 887 words ?
