This is Billy's introduction.  

I've been with the Atlassian User Group, NOVA and DC for a while now.  First becoming a member back in 2013 and then a Leader in 2014.  The best part has been the people who make up the community and all the cool tricks they've taught me!

I like unicorns more for what they represent and how they give me a goal to strive for awesome-ness.  Plus they have super cool flowing hair.  With color.

@Michelle Simkonis and @Dana Jansen \(Confluence Queen\) are the reality check that help keep me sane and really take this whole community up a notch!  :

@Billy Poggi AUG NOVA_ DC Fadoua had issues mentioning you as well.  

Billy and @Dana Jansen - Confluence Queen, this may be working for me only because I'm an admin. I suggest using brackets instead for now, which we know works fine.

@Billy Poggi AUG NOVA_ DC I saw a unicorn costume at Target the other day and thought about picking it up and mailing it to you. But I don't want to get you something you already might own!

But I will totally come visit your AUG if you set this up at a summer event:

I have a giant unicorn head in my garage, also from Target. The kind of thing that you don't know why you need it, but you need it. My child was terrified when I put it on, however. I wonder if it will fit in my suitcase for Summit....

That ginormous union sprinkler looks like an amazing idea for a future kid-friendly event .. :D
