Hi, my name is Divya Mohan. I’m an open source engineer and advisor by trade with a passion for building accessible and inclusive communities through collaboration. Currently, I am a Principal Technology Advocate at SUSE, focusing on developer relations and driving community initiatives for our open source projects. In the past, I've also been an advisor to Avesha Inc., where I focused on community-building strategies for their open source project, Kubeslice.
Elsewhere in the open source ecosystem, I co-chair the documentation efforts and have previously served on several release cycles of the Kubernetes project. I'm also chairing the efforts to build a global community around the WebAssembly specification under the Bytecode Alliance and bootstrapping the Asian chapter within the CHAOSS project.
With over a decade of experience in the industry, I've worn many hats, including (but not limited to) that of a Sys Admin, a people manager, a technical writer, etc.
Tl;Dr: I love what I do since it gives me the opportunity to interact learn from some of the greatest folks in industry and takes me to some interesting places.
I'm also a huge art & cultural studies nerd and can be found with my nose in a book, when I'm not working.
Here's a slightly more professional photo of me.
