Thank you to our Outgoing Chair, Lori Lorusso
Lori Lorusso was been the Outreach Chair for the past two years. The CD Foundation and its community are immensely grateful for all the energy, support, and leadership she has generously offered! Don’t worry though, Lori is still around and will keep representing us as a CDF Ambassador.
Lori said:
It has been my pleasure to serve as Outreach Chair for the CDF. I feel like I have been a part of a team working with Michelle and Roxanne on staff, Fatih, and with the Board.
I highly recommend taking your involvement with open source organizations like the CDF to the next level by running for a chair position. The access you have to leadership, the ability to help shape the organization, the amount of contacts you make in the community, the sheer amount of knowledge and experienced gained is absolutely amazing. I look forward to working with the next Outreach Chair as I continue my involvement with the CDF as an Ambassador.
Cheers to the incoming leader!
