Hi, I'm Kristjan

Kristján Geir Mathiesen April 11, 2019

I'm a compact viking from Iceland that loves Jira. I've been administrating Atlassian products for 4 years or so. Also admin SugarCRM. Work remotely from home. Passed the Jira Administration certification last summer - phew, that was a pretty hard test but totally worth it. Attended my very first Summit this year. Anywho, that's me in a nutshell.

Since a can-do attitude is part of my DNA, I am a strong believer in team work and enthusiastically embrace new challenges in search for greater professional growth and contribution. Attention to details results in higher quality of work, affecting the bottom line in a positive way.

Circumstances in life have afforded me the opportunity to reside in the following three countries for extended periods of time: Iceland, United Kingdom and United States. This experience along with translation assignments has brought me multicultural insights and better understanding of human interactions that I leverage in producing fitting end results.

Experienced in Information technology, SugarCRM, ticketing system processes and procedures, JIRA, information strategy planning, ITIL, budgeting, business startups, forecasting, managing people/processes/products, project management, viability, profitability, continuity planning.

Welcome, Kristjan! Awesome first post :) I work remotely from home as well. @Stephen_Sifers__DFW_ wrote a great article on remote work. You should chime in on his post with some of your own tips!

@Kristján Geir Mathiesen Welcome, Kristjan! Folks who are product experts and contribute consistently are uniquely positioned to join our Community Leaders program, so keep that in mind for the future. 😄 To expand upon what Stephanie said about remote work, there are a lot of great tips on the Trello blog as well.
