I am an open source research strategist and tech diversity community management specialist, dedicated to developing new technologies and enhancing existing systems within advanced open source ecosystems. I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with organizations such as Mattermost Inc., CHAOSS Community, Linux Foundation, Sugar Labs, Terasology Foundation, and JBoss Community. 🌍
My passion lies in research, particularly exploring products and communities. I am actively involved in research publishing, media initiatives, and diverse technological development aimed at fostering a brighter educational future. Committed to progress, I devote significant time to mentoring and supporting the creation of OSS/FOSS solutions that have the potential to shape a promising open-source tomorrow. 🚀 I also support communities in maintaining strong relationships with external projects, organizing meetups and events that contribute to the FOSS ecosystem. My goal is to help organizations understand, utilize, release, and contribute to free and open-source software in ways that benefit both their end-users and the wider community. 🤝
