I have over ten years of experience in developer relations, developer experience engineering, program and project management, and team leadership. I am passionate about creating engaging developer communities and fostering strong relationships between developers and the products they use.

I am bilingual in English and Polish, holding certifications in advanced English, Professional Scrum Product Owner I, and Professional Scrum Master I. I have been recognized for my contributions at various conferences and festivals, such as the Bitspiration Festival and Youth in Leadership Conference. Currently, I am the Developer Relations Manager at Oxla in Kraków, where I develop and implement strategies to build and engage our developer community. My responsibilities include creating informative content, implementing performance metrics, and collaborating closely with marketing, development, and product teams.
