Hi folks! I'm Project Lead for Mautic, an open source marketing automation platform, as my full time occupation. Also don't come across many folk in the space who are not men.

I have been involved with several open source projects over the years, and I find it interesting to see how things work (or don't work) in different projects, cultures etc. I think sharing openly is a really important way to communicate best practices, learn from others and model what we want to see in the world.

I try to focus on making the places that I do interact and engage within the open source world a welcoming space for all, and work on projects that help engage more folks with open source from minority groups.

Do come and join the Women in Open Source community mentioned by @lornajane in the comments if you'd find it helpful!
