Running through my photos from MoTacon and LWQ, it was right that I share my meetup with Komal. I had a great chat with her on the Tuesday evening alongside Rahul, but I'll admit at the time it didn't dawn on me who I was talking to. Sometimes I can be a bit hyper meeting up with the community that I forget to do the basics, skip the introduction phase and just get chatting 😬
So just taking a moment to thank Komal for the great conversation and selfie 🙏
