We're so happy to have you! I went and listened to you be introduced in other events to pronounce your name correctly for the intro!

@michellefrechette @wpa11yday LOL! I always joke about this, sometimes wishing my family name to be easier. It even happens they write it wrong and physical material does not arrive... But there's something worse around, speaking about names. If my family name were "vacca" it could have meant "cow" and it's not a compliment
