@Erica Moss that's great news and perfect timing !! Looking forward to meeting you and growing this community.

[Andrew Kendris]

Hello @Kapil Samadhiya!

@Erica Moss put it best - it's cool to see this come alive!

My name is Andrew Kendris and I work as an IT Project Manager at a corporate law firm in the Financial District, NYC. After attending my first Summit this year, I recently earned the Jira Project Administrator Certification and made the push to integrate all of Atlassian's solutions into my day-to-day (both professional and personal) with a focus on end-user experience.

It was great attending the Keep Cool with AUG IN AUG community event and looking forward to learning more from everyone and building a great community!

[Erica Moss]

@Andrew Kendris Thanks so much for joining us, Andrew! I had so much fun last night — looking forward to seeing more of y'all. 😄

[Kapil Samadhiya]

Hello @Kapil Samadhiya

I’m certainly looking forward to the next event. The “HERE” link seems to be broken - is there another page with these details?

Hi, I'm Dave! I've been a part of this Atlassian User Group - er, Atlassian Community - for at least 8 years? Everyone I've met has been welcoming, and it's always fun crossing paths at events like Summit.

Until we can safely meet en masse, anyone up for a socially-distant outdoor meetup? Maybe with a capped number of guests?

[伟哎]

I like this platform very much. It's great！

[Rob Horan]

Hi all - I recently had a chance to attend a Boston ACE event.  One of the great things they did was set up a Slack workspace for attendees to continue conversations.  Is that something the NY group might consider?

[MICHAEL YAZINSKY]

Hi All.  I’m Michael Yaz.  Living in In around NYC doing project and support process work.  Have been attending AUG NY events for about 5 years.  Love  many things about Atlassian, but especially the user group community which is the best out there.  Looking fwd to seeing everyone in person again soon.

Hi, I am new here. Just retired after 37 years of IT Management. Interested in Jira and possible 2nd act part time... glad to see such a lively community..

Feel free to introduce yourself within this thread!

[Al Perez]

Hello to the NYC Atlassian Community!

I have been using Jira and Confluence on and off the last several years and am interested in learning the latest offerings from you all.  My interests in computing started back in high school programming on a Data General One (1979-82).  I have worn many hats in my career: Trading floor support, Network administration, DevOps software Deployment engineer, supported 500+ international video conferencing systems, and for the last few years I am in Cyber Security supporting an international company.

First time really getting back into AUG after the pandemic, so am looking forward to some live events in the area!

Thank you!

[Dave Liao]

Welcome!
