Maggie Pint talks with Dave Rael about diverse personalities, understanding the perspectives of others, taking action, and the uncelebrated amazing people around us

Maggie works in the Open Source Programs office at Microsoft, where she helps people navigate Microsoft’s Open source ecosystem both by writing code to better automate open source processes, and by advocating Open Source Software within and outside the organization. In the past she has been a SQL Server DBA, a full stack .NET developer, and a project manager. In her non-Microsoft open source life, she is a maintainer of Moment.js, and a regular conference speaker advocating for open source involvement and better handling of date and time in programming. When she is not coding, Maggie enjoys spending time with her four-year-old son, drinking too much coffee, and showing and breeding Australian Shepherds.

Maggie's top 3 tips for delivering more value:
  1. Have time for entry-level developers
  2. Read open source code
  3. Try to meet people where they are
