Samantha Di Lena

My vision is to be the catalyst for positive change, moving towards purposeful success, innovation, and lasting impact in an ever-evolving world. This happens through empowered individuals and organisations, that have a clear path to their full potential.

With a technical background in database administration, SQL reporting, business intelligence, business analytics and anything application centric - I've seen many technical teams focus solely on the technical skills. While obviously needed, the culture within a team and organisation are created from so much more.

I'm passionate about bringing the human skills back in to focus in technical roles. We all need to know how to work and grow together as people.

Andrew MacLean

Andrew MacLean

Andrew is equal parts tech enthusiast, educator, and the kind of person who can’t resist pressing buttons just to see what happens (sometimes even twice). A former classroom teacher with nearly a decade of experience crafting learning experiences for techies of all ages, he traded chalkboards for the keyboards of the tech industry in 2020 and hasn’t looked back. Since then, he’s worn many hats—Community Manager, Developer Advocate, and now Developer Educator at Twilio—where he helps developers connect the dots between imagination and implementation. When he’s not building (or breaking :sweat_smile:) things with tech, you’ll find Andrew soaking up the west coast vibes on Vancouver Island, Canada—where he tries (and often fails) to look outdoorsy.
