OMGOMGOMG! In addition to Bryan’s great introduction, let me just say that Heather is an amazing and outstanding community advocate who has been one of my girl crushes for almost a decade. I first came across her and her work at one of those nerdy open source festivals back in the day, and we’ve traded ideas and insights over the years. I can’t imagine a better addition to our Ambassador crew!
