About me
Hi there, I'm Jona ๐ ๐ป
I help build and foster developer communities, and I deeply care about Free and Open Source Software. ๐
๐ My journey into the world of FOSS started back in 2014 when I attended the first edition of OSCAL in Tirana, Albania. Since 2015, I've been contributing to the Fedora community and became the first Fedora Ambassador in Albania. Since then, I've been involved in various roles within Fedora, mainly focusing on DEI and mentorship.
Beyond this, I'm a wanderer with an endless curiosity about the world. I find immense joy when exploring new places, immersing myself in different cultures, and connecting with folks from all walks of life. ๐บ๏ธ โ๏ธ ๐งญ My love for travel reminds me that the world is diverse and colorful, and by embracing different cultures, we can create a more vibrant and harmonious global community.
