Featured for August 2012
Benjamin Kerensa
One of the first Mozilla Reps in North America, Benjamin is passionate about FOSS and has been helping to spread Mozilla's mission throughout the region.
He recently gave a talk in OSCON with Mozilla Reps council member Brian King on "How to multiply your community by a factor of X", a topic he knows very well, having been a community manager for a variety of different FOSS projects and having successfully on-boarded many new contributors to these projects. Helping to build a vibrant Mozilla community in North America is his ambition and so if you're in this part of the world, make sure to get in touch with Benjamin, he'll most certainly be able to point you to a great conference or Foss happening in your area you should check out.
Congrats Benjamin on being the Rep of the month for August 2012!
