I joined Lightbend (then Typesafe) in March, 2014. After six incredible years April 7, 2020 was my last day at Lightbend. I am grateful that I got the opportunity to work with an amazing group of people at Lightbend, partners, customers, and various people I got to meet at conferences. Looking back, before COVID-19 times, it's almost surreal that I was flying to Europe, Asia, and North America every few months to attend conferences and tech meetings.
