About Me

My name is Marie Catherine Nordin and I am a graphic designer and badge enthusiast! I previously held the Fedora Community Action and Impact Coordinator role (November 2019 - October 2022). I live and work in Rochester, NY, with my partner, three cats (Ruby, Sapphire, & Sadie) and dog (Sienna).

History & Contributions

I first became involved with the Fedora Project in the fall of 2013 when I heard about Gnome's Outreachy Program. I applied to become a Fedora Badges intern and upon acceptance I participated in the seventh session of the program. During my internship I designed over 70 Fedora badges as well as the first version of the Fedora Badges Official Style Guide. Over the past 5 years, I continued to stay involved with the Fedora Badges project, taking a leadership role on the Design side of the subproject. I take volunteer time to triage, mentor, and hold workshops/hackfests for Fedora badges.

I have also been involved in the Fedora Design team over the years, attending events, creating t-shirts, helping with logos, and various design related tasks.

Fedora Community Action and Impact Coordinator

Since becoming FCAIC in 2019, I have worked on many projects and initiatives with the community. Some of which include:

- Development and implementation of a new Code of Conduct

- Development and execution of the First Fedora Contributor Annual Survey

- Transition from in person to virtual events due to COVID-19 including Release Parties, Social Hours, and Nest with Fedora

- Development and support of the Fedora Community Outreach Revamp Objective

- Lead the Mindshare Committee and participate on the Fedora Council

- Support and coordination for the Diversity & Inclusion Team including meetups, Fedora Women's Day 2020, and Fedora Week of Diversity 2021
