   • I have created courses on Jamstack Training, egghead to improve the
     community learning on Gatsby. While exposing Gatsby to more communities
     than they were in previously - Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria.

   Championing speaking, engaging with other companies on co-marketing
   streams to improve the view of Gatsby as more than a Static site generator
   which directly ties to Q1 goals.

   Moving forward with a content plan on educating developers about Gatsby
   Cloud features such as Incremental builds, CMS integrations. Videos can be
   found on egghead.

   Implement SEO blog post on Third-party blogs to promote Gatsby and its
   features. Tieing to H2 goals. Articles can be found in LogRocket blog
   Completing Q2 goals before the due date, I was tasked with 6 speaking
   engagements and I did 8. Also with Co-marketing I am currently working with
   the GraphQL organization as a mentor for Season of Docs and migrating

   Gatsby · Berkeley, California, United States

   • Creation of original examples and recipes in strategic focus areas: MDX,
     plugins, and themes. Most of the documentation didn’t exist when I got here
     I hit the ground running with this kind of advanced technical material, which
     mapped to a team priority of the plugin workflow, as well as the company
     plugin KPI.

   • Built a VScode Profile for Gatsby code examples in Doc. This was aimed at
     getting a more uniform look for code snippets on the documentation.

   • I worked on making E-commerce consistent across .org also assisted in the
     testing of Tutorials on E-commerce and working with CMS.

   • Validating Contentful and Drupal Guide for cloud doc for Gatsby Cloud
     launch.

   • Working on Plugin the plugin Authoring workflow which was inline with
     Learning team priorities, I assisted by creating original documentation on
     source plugins and the Maintaining a plugin guide. P.S: A lot of the plugin
     documentation was more of useage and I implemented docs that help people
     build plugins.

   • I also contributed to the GraphQL section of the documentation and closed
     an Issue that was opened in 2018.
     Which was a huge win for Learning and ties to company goals.

   • Many PR reviews and Contributions! – I hit the ground running by reviewing
     a PR and contributing to the repo on my first day contributed to keeping the
     Gatsby open source repo moving with dozens of PR reviews for docs, starters,
     tutorials, and site showcase contributions. This helped offset the workload
     from other team members, balancing the work effectively and contributing to a
     happy developer community. I am currently on rotation
