Excited to Join Adobe

Hello CFUnited alumni and fans! CFUnited 2009 was amazing and I encourage everyone to register for 2010.

I recently accepted a position with the Developer Relations team at Adobe to become a Community Manager. I’m excited for the opportunity to continue working with the community and support the vision of my team: Rachel Luxemburg, John Koch, John Dowdell, and Stacy Sison.

As for CFUnited, I’ve been added as an Advisory Member. Thank you Stellr! The Stellr team and its newest list of advisers are committed more than ever to putting together an amazing event in 2010. I am confident that the practices and procedures I put in place for CFUnited will be followed and continuously improved by the Stellr team. They are passionate about this growing adventure and excited about their new advisory team.

CFUnited was created for the community. No matter who is in the driver’s seat, the conference follows a plan set by its community and suggestions. I trust that Stellr team will do the right thing.

I believe attending events and organizing them is something every community member should experience at some point in time. You learn great things about your peers and you gain a broader perspective of the industry. CFUnited is a success because it listens to the feedback and encourages those who are passionate about what they do.

My final advice before jumping to the mother-ship…

I believe this is one of the strongest communities in IT. Get those User Groups started again and volunteer your time to present. I support everyone to carry out your vision to bring people together and aim high in the future. And remember that I’m not going anywhere, I’m here to connect with you and build a stronger relationship.

Please come by the Adobe Community Lounge at MAX and say “Hi” to me and let’s talk serious!
