Welcome Nicola Ayan as new EMVP

Today I have the honor of announcing that the EMVP Board has granted Nicola Ayan EMVP status in recognition of her dedication to - and knowledge sharing with - the Episerver community.

Welcome aboard, Nicola! You are now joining a group of truly awesome developers and digital strategist. All of whom are dedicated, passionate, opinionated and knowledgeable!

You can also learn more about the EMVP Program on world.episerver.com/emvp. If you know someone who should be an EMVP, send a nomination to Martin.Ottosen@episerver.com (EMEA) or Chris.Sharp@episerver.com (US). The EMVP Board meets once a quarter and evaluates incoming nominations.

Finally, a small personal note: This will be my last EMVP announcement as I am riding off into the sunset at the end of august to explore life outside Episerver. I won't go far though - and if all goes according to plan I'll keep blogging and sharing Episerver knowledge and codebits where I can. It has been an honor and a pleasure working with the EMVP program and I hope I will get many more chances to hang out with this great group!
