She loved the project and reached out to me so he could help me.<br>Thanks to her I started meeting with people within the Global community and I met wonderful people.<br>There was a channel on global WordPress just to talk about diversity.

It was a great conversation that I have good memories of. I was very lost, with such a low level of English, and that I did a little what I could, I didn&#8217;t really know what to do. She thinks that in the WordPress Spain community I felt very alone and I finally began to meet other types of people who were working hard on this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Angela named the specific diversity slack channel for me and then she told me about <a href=\"https:\/\/profiles.wordpress.org\/jillbinder\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jill<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/profiles.wordpress.org\/juliarosia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Julia<\/a>, two lovely people who have been very patient and helpful in any way they could.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/diversein.tech\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jill<\/a> is currently the person leading the global WordPress community diversity team and they are always open to different ideas, opinions and it&#8217;s all love.<br>I talk to Jill many times in private, with my crazy ideas and she gives me her opinion and her point of view.
