I'm pleased to announce that the Wikimedia Foundation is hiring Naoko Komura as Program Manager for the Stanton Foundation Usability Project. She will begin work on January 2, 2009, and her employment contract with us will end on April 1, 2010.
Naoko has worked for us in the past three months as a contractor shepherding two important projects: the reader/contributor survey, which was successfully launched and received tens of thousands of responses, and the Wikimania 2008 postmortem analysis. She's also project managed the fundraiser translation work, the development of the Stanton Foundation grant proposal, and another grant proposal we're actively working on. Naoko has worked as a Senior Program Manger and Project Manager for Yahoo! Mail, Postini, and Cygnus Solutions. She has an MA in International Development Policy from Stanford University and an MS in Economics from Kobe University in Japan. She's a native speaker of Japanese. I'm very pleased that Naoko has agreed to lead this important initiative. Please join me in welcoming her! -- Erik Möller Deputy Director, Wikimedia Foundation Support Free Knowledge: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
