- Develop a better understanding of their position in our software engineering process.
Memories From Portland
Maria and I set foot in Portland, Oregon on the 8th of July, a little over 24 hours since my wake-up alarm had went off in Athens, Greece. With excitement and anticipation dangling upon us, we left PDX behind us and headed towards the city center: Support Driven Expo 2019 was right around the corner.
Rewind, Reflect, Reboot
It’s been only a few days since we took our first big step back from work to reflect and rewind.
