== About me ==
== About me ==


Hello, my name is Jona, I'm a student of Business Informatics at the University of Tirana, and also a hacktivist of Open Labs.
Hi there, I'm Jona 👋 🌻


I'm passionate about the philosophy of Open Source, I believe in transparency and cooperation, open and free Internet. I have been working on promoting FLOSS in Albania. Also, I've been working on Fedora Localization Project to bring everything around Fedora closer to our community.
I help build and foster developer communities, and I deeply care about Free and Open Source Software. 💚


I'm interested in empowering woman in society because women participation in open technology and culture is very important so we should all pay more attention.
📍 My journey into the world of FOSS started back in 2014 when I attended the first edition of [https://oscal.openlabs.cc/ OSCAL] in Tirana, Albania. Since 2015, I've been contributing to the Fedora community and became the first Fedora Ambassador in Albania. Since then, I've been involved in various roles within Fedora, mainly focusing on DEI and mentorship.


I'm very passionate about programming, I already know C++, Java, HTML, JS and a bit of Python and I'm learning other languages.
Beyond this, I'm a wanderer with an endless curiosity about the world. I find immense joy when exploring new places, immersing myself in different cultures, and connecting with folks from all walks of life. 🗺️ ✈️ 🧭 My love for travel reminds me that the world is diverse and colorful, and by embracing different cultures, we can create a more vibrant and harmonious global community.

About me

Hi there, I'm Jona 👋 🌻

I help build and foster developer communities, and I deeply care about Free and Open Source Software. 💚

📍 My journey into the world of FOSS started back in 2014 when I attended the first edition of OSCAL in Tirana, Albania. Since 2015, I've been contributing to the Fedora community and became the first Fedora Ambassador in Albania. Since then, I've been involved in various roles within Fedora, mainly focusing on DEI and mentorship.

Beyond this, I'm a wanderer with an endless curiosity about the world. I find immense joy when exploring new places, immersing myself in different cultures, and connecting with folks from all walks of life. 🗺️ ✈️ 🧭 My love for travel reminds me that the world is diverse and colorful, and by embracing different cultures, we can create a more vibrant and harmonious global community.

Current volunteering in Fedora

PS: Ah, I forgot to mention that I love collecting Fedora badges. 🤩 🎊
