Ahmad Awais
I’m an invited voting member of Node.js Community Committee. An honor currently extended to only 11 people worldwide.
After spending a decade contributing to the WordPress eco-system (mostly JavaScript stuff) — I’ve now started expanding my open source contributions by joining the Node.js Foundation as an Individual Member.
Most of my contributions have been in the Node.js Foundation’s Community Committee (CommComm) a top-level committee involved in all sorts of projects from Evangelism to the Website redesign project. I was recently voted as an active member which is amazing. CommComm team is about 15 people now.
I’ve been humbled by the super welcoming and inclusive response I’ve received from the CommComm team members. As POC this is extremely important to me. Excited to see what’s next with this. It’s where I want to grow next. My wife and I are also working to reboot another initiative called Node.js Community Outreach. More on that later.
Welcome to the @nodejs Community Committee's newest member @MrAhmadAwais! 🎉 We have a lot of great work ahead of us in the Website Redesign and Outreach initiatives – lets go 🔥https://t.co/VbWrbWkPYn
