Emma Irwin
Microsoft
Principal TPM, OSPO
Emma has been building and contributing to open source software and open source communities for about as long as she can remember. Her role at Microsoft's Open Source Programs Office (OSPO) building, empowering and activating developers and their teams around open source is a combination of all the things she loves: teaching, learning, tinkering and bringing people together (with some good laughs along the way). Previous to Microsoft, she spent a number of years working on Open Innovation at Mozilla, at Benetech on SocialCoding4Good.. Emma lives in Sooke, BC with her family which includes two dogs, and one cat.
