Introduce Yourself!

[Fooman]

Looking forward to meeting everyone there!

Kristof from Fooman here, first time MLUK attendee.

We offer extensions for both Magento 1 and Magento 2 that simplify and streamline merchants' admin. In particular if you are interested in connecting your Xero account to Magento we have a solution which could be of interest.

Always great to connect and re-connect with the community at events and most looking forward to meeting old and new friends. It's always interesting to see what everyone else is up to.

Free time? Dad to a 1 year old so this is not applicable any more

See you there

Hi, I'm Mitch Goldman -- http://londonmitch.com/

I'm a Magento project manager/product owner with experience spanning the agency, merchant, and extension sides of development. Currently I'm Product Owner at StoreGecko (www.storegecko.com), a product information management SAAS startup. (Want a better way to manage your products than using Magento Admin? Sign up and try us out!)  I also freelance as an e-commerce consultant, with my first site launching this summer.

I run the London Magento User Group which is the largest and most active Magento Meetup group in the world. We're an eclectic mix of Magento merchants, developers, and service providers, and our events are fun, informative, and great for networking. I hope to see you there!

A final plug... please download my free e-book: “Magento for Managers: 6 crucial things I wish I knew when choosing Magento”.

Hi everyone!

• My name is Gabriel Guarino and I am from Argentina.
  
  
• I am a Magento Certified Developer (x4) and I've been working with Magento since 2009.
  
  
• I'm working on Magento core 75% of the time. The rest of the time I work on Magento front-end, which is really a good balance.
  
  
• This time I will be looking forward for your comments, videos and information about the meeting. I've never participated on a Magento conference before, which is really weird for me since I've been part of this community for a long time! My goal for this year is to start attending as many Magento conferences as I can.
  
  
• I've never attended a Magento event before and attending as many events as I can is my primary goal for this (and next) year.
  
  
• My favorite way to spend my free time is learning new things about Magento, including inspecting its code further (there is always something new to learn!) and reviewing the best practices implemented on the platform, to follow those practices when it's time to code new extensions.
