Hi Miro Community!

 

My name is Manouska and I am the Community Forum Lead at Miro. Happy to be here with you and have a chance to create this space for all Miro users to connect, collaborate, co-create and share knowledge with each other!

It would be cool if you introduce yourself here in the thread - share where you work, live, your role, and how you use Miro (share your bigger Miro story here).

Feel free to add any other interesting information or even a fun picture with your pet :wink: This is the best way for all of us to get to know one another!

 

📚 Once you’ve introduced yourself, join our Community Book Challenge for a change to win some Miro swag 🏆

 

We can’t wait to get to know you all better and see you create the next big thing in this Miro Community!

Dear all: My name is Michael and I got to know Miro during the Corona lockdown. I work as a teacher at a vocational college, and Miro has enabled me to teach online with an educational account. Recently, I was looking for a tool that allows one to flexibly and freely display everything one wants. Actually, I am a pastor - and I am currently transitioning professionally to become a consultant for organizations and church communities. Such processes also need to be visualized at times. That’s when I thought of Miro - and I created my first private account. I am looking forward to discovering what all is possible.

And - yes. There is a dog here too.

Hiya,
I'm Sierra Garcia, and I'm new to this community. As a fellow member, I'm eager to get to know all of you and learn from your experiences. While I may not have the ability to offer assistance or support like I do in my role at Ratio Hub, I'm here to be a friendly face and participate in the community activities. Let's all make this community a welcoming and enjoyable place for everyone!

Hi everyone!

 

I’ve been a long-time Miro user, but for some reason am extremely late to the community party. I am a design strategist in a scholarly communications research incubator called Greenhouse Studios, which is part of the University of Connecticut in the United States. (If you follow NCAA basketball, you should know about UConn….Go Huskies!)

 

I wear a lot of hats in my role, but the most relevant one here is design thinking facilitator. I am currently part of an NEH-funded institute called NetWorkLab, in which we teach remote collaboration for digital humanists. I am a HUGE Miro evangelist and I teach/facilitate with it often, both as the venue for my content and as the subject of my lessons.

 

My background is much more rooted in art & design than it is in scholarly communications and digital humanities, but I have really enjoyed working an academia and in this role that I have been really lucky to shape over the last 6+ years. I get to mentor a ton of students, and I love that equally.

 

Outside of my professional role, I am also a parent, wife, avid equestrian, and I run a boutique creative studio centered around the equestrian community. Glad to e-meet you all!

Hi @Brooke Foti Gemmell 

Never too late to join the community party! Welcome! Looking forward to your perspective in the forums.

Cheers!

Hello everyone! Officially introducing myself to the community! (not my first time) I am also @Victor Paredes. My name is Victor. I am a designer, visual facilitator and domain investor bootstrapping digital product concepts.

As much as I have always been passionate about Miro, I was never active in the community. I used to be shy even publishing anonymously, but now I have much to share and I have been working on some cool stuff I will be sharing spontaneously. I read how to earn points & badges and I am feeling competitive 😝

In fact I knew Miro since RealtimeBoard. I learned Design Thinking in University studying entrepreneurship and have been addicted to Miro ever since. I am insanely and even unhealthily mapping EVERYTHING I can think of in Miro. It’s all connected, everything is connected, but, I’ll leave the talk for another day.

(also I just got accepted in the Miro Consultant Community 🥳)

Blessings all!

 hi @vprds! 

Love to see all this enthusiasm! It’s very inspirational! Looking forward to see what new designs and ideas you have after spending time on the forums.

 

Cheers.

Hi

I’m Amanda Benbelaid and I discovered Miro about 3 jobs ago and have never looked back! I head up Sales Enablement for a Tech start up and have worked in Tech for a few years now. As well as enabling my Sales teams, I collaborate very closely with other Go to Market teams and Miro is great to help us to liaise and manage projects. 

My favourite thing to do is to run Learning workshops and encourage peer to peer sharing. It’s great when you have global offices and can’t always get into a room together. (It’s great when you can too!) I’m always looking for innovative ways to use Miro and love how it iterates with great new functionality! It’s an integral part of my onboarding programmes and pretty much most enablement whether to plan and/or deliver!

Always interested to connect with others who use the platform to facilitate or plan learning interventions. And also product managers or product marketers who collaborate through Miro and anyone from Sales. (Or anyone who just generally loves to get creative in there!)

 

Hi @Amanda Benbelaid,

So happy to have you as a part of the Miro Community for the past three years, and that it’s been helpful for your project management. Let us know if you have any questions, we're always happy to help.

Hello Miro Community,

 

My name is Logan Grime, and I’m a freelance Full-Stack Software Engineer. I live in Toledo, Ohio, United States of America, and I love Backend Development the most. I use Miro to organize many of my collaboration sessions with others.

 

Thanks for having me,

Logan Grime

My name is David.  I teach math at a community college in Oregon.

I am transitioning from Jamboards.  I have lots of amazing, interactive math lesson Jamboards.  You can see most of those here.

  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1i_3MRCWCM_oZTL-IG_7ugcA26952_fIT

 

I really hope that the promised Jamboard → Miro import tool will function well.  I often use layered images in fancy was so students can uncover, sort, etc.  It would be a huge disappointment to have to rebuild my Jamboards!

I’ve been using Miro for a few months now and it works okay.  I really need the ability to type exponents (superscripts) and a laser pointer tool.

Hello, I'm Nati from Buenos Aires, Argentina (proud World Champions 😉). I currently serve as a Scrum Master at a bank, a role I transitioned into six months ago. Prior to this, I spent seven years as a Functional Analyst/BA. I'm thrilled with this new opportunity and eager to absorb as much knowledge as I can! 😚

Outside of work, I'm passionate about traveling, immersing myself in nature, and scaling mountains. I'm also deeply committed to staying abreast of new technologies and continuously expanding my skill set.

Hi Marina and Miro Heros,

My name is Bob Skertic. I am a Professor at Defense Acquisition University (DAU). We use Miro to show our students an example of a collaboration tool. 

Looks like you have an awesome world-wide community of passionate users...so nice!

I am not using Miro very much due to my other tasks but need some help.

We are currently creating training in Coursera that includes old versions of Miro.

We are using a video from an old version of Miro; It has a God's eye View in the bottom right--what happened to that view? Is there a replacement view?

Thanks!

Bob

I recently (5 years ago) got into User Experience Design and User Research after graduating from Cornell’s Human Computing Interface program. I have worked at Duke Energy as a UX/UI Designer.

I fell in love with MIRO at Duke Energy. Its such a great tool for a designer like myself.

I look forward to sharing and learning from everyone in this Miro community!
