WordCamp Montreal is a community-run event that includes as many people as possible in our decisions, however the core responsibilities tend to fall in the hands of a few key organizers who make sure that all the work gets done.
Carl Alexander
Carl Alexander is a PHP developer that loves learning about advanced technology topics. Besides helping with WordCamp Montreal, he organizes the other WordPress events during the rest of the year. His other interests lie with nutrition and sports science, weight training and, most importantly, video games.
Richard Archambault
Richard loves the web and really loves WordPress. After attending his first WordCamp Montreal in 2010, he was hooked! Now a Happiness Engineer with Automattic, Richard wants to help spread the WordPress goodness to anyone else who’s interested in the web. When he’s not tinkering with his sites, he loves going to Mexico to eat spicy tacos and ride around on the metro!
Alex Ruaux
Alex is a freelance web developer at Molecularcode Web Design and loves spending her days working with WordPress. She is also a regular instructor and mentor at Ladies Learning Code events. After a recent career shift herself, she enjoys giving back to the communities that helped support her. Aside from developing websites, her passions lie with 3D printing, gaming and enjoying the outdoors.
Shannon Smith
Shannon Smith is the founder of Café Noir Design, a boutique Montreal web design and development studio specializing in bilingual web design. She supports open source software, and sustainable business practices. She speaks often and blogs at Chroni.ca. google+ | blog
Andrea Zoellner
Andrea is a freelance copywriter and a content consultant at Automattic. She’s helped nonprofits, startups, schools, and big corporations improve their websites through the power of good content. She loves wordplay, coffee shop hopping, and blogging about how to pack the ultimate carry-on.
