Hi everybody!
Who are you?My name is Gustavo Siñovsky, I’m a Software Engineer.
Where are you located?
Santiago de Chile, Chile.
Why are you here? What are you looking to learn?
I’m looking to bolster my credentials while making the shift from my current project management position to new positions that are closer to the product management side of things, which I’m far more interested about. I’m also looking to learn new frameworks and strategies, and validate through this certification what I’ve empirically put into practice while acting like an impromptu PO at my current company.
What are you the most excited about in terms of our growing community?
Getting to know new people with whom I share this interest, and learn everything I can from the experts.
And, how did you find us?
Through the Scrum Alliance website.
