Tell us about yourself

[Karen O'Keefe]

Hey, PDX peeps! Let's all answer some questions (by way of introductions):

1. Where do you work and what do you do?
2. Which Atlassian product are you using?
3. Which part of town are you in?
4. What is something few people know about you?

[Karen O'Keefe]

1. I'm a contract Tech writer at Genesis in Beaverton.
2. Just learning about Confluence (but we haven't fully implemented it yet).
3. Beaverton for work. Tigard for home.
4. I can write forwards and backwards at the same time (also called mirror writing).

1. I work for the Vancouver Clinic
2. We've been using Confluence for about 7 years and Jira for about 2 years.
3. Vancouver (not BC), Washington (not DC)
4. So far as I can tell I'm the only Davin Studer in the world. I could be wrong, but Google and Facebook back me up.

Hello Everyone,

1) I recently started as the IT Manager for Smith Optics. Previously, I was the IT manager for a construction company.

2) I used Trello at my last job, I inherited Jira & Confluence in my current role.

3) My fiancée and I recently purchased our first house in NE Salem. Work is in SE Portland. I don't mind the commute, that's what podcasts and audiobooks are for.

4) My left Maxillary central incisor (front tooth) is fake. I broke it off when I face planted on to the gym floor while using one of the scooters used in PE as little kids and I hit a plastic coated jump rope.
