Introduce Yourself!

[mzeis]

Hello everybody,

I'm Matthias and I'm Tech Lead at LimeSoda, an online agency located in Vienna, Austria. We're about 35 people developing online shops and websites, servicing our clients in social media and SEA/SEM.

I'm in the Magento ecosystem since 2009 and have been to several events (Meet Magento DE/NL several times, MageTitans UK, Mage Unconference, ...) both as an attendee and speaker. I'm also the founder of the Magento Meetup Austria so if happen to be around the area when a meetup is going down it would be great to have you.

This is my first time ever I'll go to Magento Imagine and I'm already very excited about that! I've only been once to an US-based Magento conference and this was X.commerce Innovate Developer Conference 2011 in San Francisco (you know, the one with eBay, PayPal and Magento combined in one place :-)).

I like to spend my free time with sports, music (I learned to play the piano aeons ago) or having a good meal or two with my friends and family.

Happy to meet you all. If you see me wandering around at Imagine, don't hesitate to say hi!

I'm Colin Tickle, Head of Development at Ribble Cycles. I've previously been both agency and customer side in developer and management roles and been focussed on Magento since about 2011.

This will be my fifth Imagine, the others being 2012 at The M Resort, 2014 at The Hard Rock (still the best Imagine conference T-shirt in my opinion), and both previous events at The Wynn. I can't remember which year the grey (non-rucksack style) laptop bag came from but that's my favourite and was my daily bag until I upgraded to a 15" Macbook as my eyes are getting old.

I'm looking forward to being back as a merchant, meeting with familiar faces and new, seeing what the partners announce and possibly a beer or two at the various gatherings.

If you see me around, say hi. I'll be at Preimagine too.
