A tech community builder in Latin America describes how showing up to meetups in Guadalajara over six months transformed their confidence. They went from dreading events to knowing people across the region, crediting their boss Dave with pushing them into the work.

Chapters

There was a moment where my boss Dave was like, hey, we're building community in LATAM. And I was like, I've never built community in LATAM, but people are people. I knew that like the best way to build community is just to start. And I've mentioned this in the vlog before. And so now like being down here in Guadalajara 3 times in 6 months, like I know people here. Like it's just mind-boggling to me. Like where I used to be at my career, like being scared to go to a Nashville meetup. Now I'm at a meetup in Mexico, in Guadalajara, and I know people. It's just such a huge difference. Blessings.
