 * I ran into Laura in Ubuntu Women team, where she very active and always around. Later I realized, she's there wherever I go, whether it be the Community Team, the Loco Council, or Foss Events. Her role in all these teams is commendable. Also, [[OSSBarcamp| www.ossbarcamp.com]] is an awesome event that she runs. I believe she's an excellent judge of character and will serve as an amazing board member. All the best of luck Laura. -- [[LaunchpadHome:nigelbabu]] <<DateTime(2010-04-20T14:15:10Z)>>

Aloha Smile :) I'm involved in the Ubuntu-ie LoCo. Living in Dublin since January 2008, and work as a Software Tester. Became involved in Open Source in College in University of Limerick - UL and was President/Chair of Skynet, our Computer Society and ran skycon.skynet.ie/2007

I'm not a developer, however I do contribute by helping educate people on the "other" choice out there, and showing them how user friendly Ubuntu is. I also love to organise events where people can learn more and interact and show off new projects they are working on.

Within the Ubuntu community, I focus on helping others with their LoCos and getting involved in Ubuntu. I was elected the the LoCoCouncil in November 2009. I'm active in the Ubuntu women team and also the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NGO

Activities

Future Goals

  • Increase activity in Ireland with regards to Ubuntu and within Ubuntu-ie, I intend to run more free events and have talks and demonstrations at them. (BugJams, Release Parties)

  • Continue to run more OSSBarcamps around Ireland
  • Get more involved in bug triaging, hopefully we're going to run more low key bugjams and really push this here.

Testimonials

  • "Laura has a natural talent to get the right people connected so great things happen. I've seen here do this again and again in Ireland with great outcomes as she points above. I'm very thankful for her unmeasurable work (with sweat and tears) making ossbarcamp happen and her huge involvement ubuntu-ie. Laura definitely is a open source HR superstar." -- Luis de Bethencourt
  • "Laura is one of the core members of the Irish Local Community. Without Laura and her organizational skills we wouldn't be able to run events like the Software Freedom Day 2008 and the Global Bug Jam in February 2008. Laura is always the first one up for writing an event report. Very active on both #ubuntu-ie IRC and mailing list." -- Maciej Danielski

  • "Laura is a very energetic and ongoing contributor. I had the chance to share community sessions with her at UDS Karmic and I believe her enthusiasm is one of the things that really impressed me but also her push to get things done is amazing. She has proven to the Irish LoCo Team and she is now begining to share with the world wide community with her work at UDS and her commitment for the Karmic Moala Release Cycle. " -- EfrainValles

  • "Laura's commitment and enthusiasm are contagious. Her dedication to her LoCo team and other areas, such as Ubuntu Women, really make her stand out. Her participation really helped make UDS-Karmic the best UDS yet. I look forward to working with her more!" -- dantrevino 2009-06-02 05:33:29

  • Got to work with her for the first time during UDS Karmic. Excellent contributions! -- jorge 2009-06-09 04:52:49

  • "Laura is an active member in irc channels , she has helped me and many people , I was happy to know her" -- vivlio

Testimonials for EMEA Regional Membership Board

  • "I met Laura at UDS Barcelona and have been in frequent contact since regarding Ubuntu-NGO, Ubuntu-Woman and some other Ubuntu-related projects. She is sincere, honest and compassionate. I recommended that she run for the EMEA regional board since I believe that she has just the right combination of human skills, community insight and Ubuntu knowledge to make a great membership reviewer." -- JonathanCarter

  • Laura is a very active Ubuntu Member -- Ubuntu-ie, Ubuntu Women Project, Ubuntu-NGO, Ubuntu LoCo Council, UDS-Karmic, UDS-L. Through her many areas of community contribution and participation she will be able to apply that knowledge and understanding of both the Ubuntu OS and Community to the Ubuntu Membership Process. Combine this knowledge with her ability to encourage and nudge others towards success through careful compliment and compassionate criticism I believe she would be an asset to the EMEA Regional Membership board. -- akgraner 2010-04-15 01:08:01

  • Laura is involved in many areas of Ubuntu and seems to know everyone there is to know. She is a great judge of character and knows what makes a great member of the Ubuntu community - and she shows this by being one. I would unreservedly support her nomination to the EMEA membership board -- AlanBell

  • Laura is a dedicated Ubuntu Member, I have had the change to work with her n the LoCo Council and the key values that make her fit for the EMEA Regional Membership board is that she is Constant, Accessible and resourceful. I belive she has a great hability to inspire the rest of the group she works with. This definitely makes her a great candidate. -- effie-jayx 2010-04-15 16:08:01

  • Cztab/Laura is a great asset to our LoCo Ubuntu-ie. She is a great help when it comes to getting things done. She has great knowledge of the Ubuntu community. Any time someone is looking to get involved with Ubuntu in our LoCo , Laura works with them finding an area where they can contribute and feel that they are apart of the cmmunity.Laura is super when it comes to events.Not only is she great at organising them, but she also open to other people helping out too. She is more than happy to share her knowledge of event organization. In one sentence , we would not be the active LoCo we are with out her. Jeffrey Roe

  • Laura is part of the reason I'm involved in the Ubuntu community, with all her enthusiasm and encouragement. She's a friendly face to new people and works hard to help them feel part of the community and get them involved. She is always working to expand her own knowledge and understanding, as well. When I got to the point of applying for my membership, she provided good insight, showing how well she understands what makes a good Ubuntu Member. -- pendulum 2010-04-20 10:22:22

  • I first met Laura in Ubuntu Women, but her name crops up in many of the other Ubuntu projects that I am working with. Wherever I encounter her, she's always actively involved and organizing something interesting, or helping new people get started. I believe she is an asset to any team that she is a part of. etali
