I've worked with '''Xubuntu''' since 2008, working as the Marketing Lead from September 2008 to April 2010. During the years, I've worked with the Xubuntu team a lot, also involving on the user support on '''#xubuntu''' as well as operating both #xubuntu and '''#xubuntu-devel'''. Through my work on the team and the Ubuntu community, I've become familiar with the standard Ubuntu processes and schedules.

=== Non-Ubuntu ===
Before joining the Ubuntu project I worked with the Amarok project for about two years. I was part of the Rokymotion (promotion) team, but I also gave massive amount of user support. In fall 2009 [[http://shimmerproject.org/|Shimmer Project]] was founded to make Open Source beautiful, including Xubuntu. Shimmer has been my main focus since, but outright I'm still contributing to Ubuntu as much as I was before, both directly and via Shimmer.		 === Work before Xubuntu ===

Before Xubuntu, I worked with user support and the '''Rokymotion''' marketing team in the [[http://amarok.kde.org/|Amarok]] project for about two years from 2006 to 2008. In 2010, I founded the [[http://shimmerproject.org|Shimmer Project]] with ''Steve Dodier''. The Shimmer Project kept on contributing artwork for Xubuntu, but spread to help other projects too. These projects include the '''Albatross''' and '''Bluebird''' desktop suites, the "Shimmer" layout, extension and modification for [[http://gmusicbrowser.org/|gmusicbrowser]] as well as some [[http://wordpress.org/|WordPress]] plugins and themes not completely publicly released yet.
