OMG! We’ve got someone you’ve got to meet - a new HQ employee! Say hello to Adriana, the latest detective at Umbraco HQ. Detective? Yes, numbers-detective! 🕵️ Get to know more about Adriana’s road to Umbraco, her new role and what she likes doing outside of work.

Hello there 👋

I’m Adriana, the new Office Management Guru (OMG!) here at Umbraco and part of the Fish Tank team 😊

I’ve been working here for almost 3 months and even though I only started coming to the HQ not long ago, due to the Corona lockdown, I’ve had a great time so far and already learnt SOO many things!

A bit about Umbraco and me...

I’ll always remember how much I smiled as I browsed around Umbraco’s website and just how much I hoped that one day I’d be part of this amazingly friendly company that values and empowers its employees and the surrounding community – and now it has finally happened!

I’ve already been through a handful of intro sessions and slowly but surely, I get to know more and more faces behind the HQ (also in real life), as the world starts to open up again.

Coming to work feels like a fruitful adventure where I’m in a constant learning process and where I get to juggle with investigation, critical thinking and attention to detail in my daily tasks. My days at HQ mainly revolve around financial reporting and a sprinkle of various administrative activities around the office. I'm still at the part where I’m being introduced to the entire list of tasks that awaits me, but luckily I get help from my dear colleague Maiken. So far I’ve learnt quite a lot of Excel tricks, found the true financial detective in me and got to know how worshipped coffee is at the HQ – worry not fellow colleagues, I got this! 💪

Adriana is stuck with Odense - and she's lovin' it🧡

And finally, who am I really?

I’m an A-person, VERY friendly, positive, energetic, creative and structured. A spirit who thrives in positive and dedicated communities. 

I’m fully awake and ready to start a new day the second after the alarm goes off 🤸 I like to make the best out of everything, simple things excite me and I always see the positive side in any situation. 

 

The very first things people get to learn about me:

👉 I moved to Denmark 6 years ago from Romania to study a Bachelor’s degree in international sales and marketing. Long story short, I fell head over heels for Odense and Danish everything: traditions, history, culture, food, people and yes, even the language So I decided to stay here for good, work at becoming an official Danish citizen and create my very own multicultural fairytale life next to the Danish-German prince charming I met along the way.

👉 Baking is my biggest passion and oh yes, I also like sharing all the treats that I’m making! So, HQ friends, you better be ready to be spoiled! 

👉 I'm an organizing and cleaning freak and I really enjoy it.

👉 I can fully understand Danish but still practising the talking part – it’s a love and hate relationship.

👉 I´m completely in love with nature and animals and can't wait to have my very own dog – until then I’ll just keep visiting the ducks around the lakes and be the weekend-mama of all the cute doggies I get to look after! 

That's all for now, I’m looking forward to finally getting to meet the entire Umbraco community once we can all meet again – until then, see you at the fun virtual community Friday bars I’ve heard so much about!

Loved by developers, used by thousands around the world!

One of the biggest benefits of using Umbraco is that we have the friendliest Open Source community on this planet. A community that's incredibly pro-active, extremely talented and helpful.

If you get an idea for something you would like to build in Umbraco, chances are that someone has already built it. And if you have a question, are looking for documentation or need friendly advice, go ahead and ask on the community forums.
