Tell us which professional talent helped you the most in organizing this WCTRN.
I’d say the talent that helped me the most in organizing this WCTRN was my technical expertise. As a web designer, I was able to work directly on the website, independently managing content and visual design updates. This allowed me to speed up timelines, maintain visual consistency, and quickly adapt communication to the needs that emerged during the organization process.
At this point, tell us what you do for a living. What do you work on?
I work as a freelance web designer and focus on designing and developing websites, with particular attention to user experience and visual consistency. I follow projects from the initial idea all the way to launch, from defining structure and content, to interface design, and finally to technical implementation.
What was the most unexpected skill you used while organizing WCTRN?
Definitely the energy and consistency in being able to attend all the calls, alongside my work. At first, this was something I was worried about, because I thought I wouldn’t be able to fit everything in. Instead, I realized that with good organization and a bit of sacrifice, it was possible to find a balance and maintain a steady commitment throughout the entire process.
What’s something people don’t realize about the work your team does behind the scenes?
One thing people often don’t realize is how much time is dedicated to invisible details. Much of the team’s work isn’t just about the big, visible decisions, but about continuously managing small things, coordinating people, replying to messages, aligning information, and preventing problems before they even arise.

In the spirit of open source collaboration, what is the most important lesson WCTRN has taught you about teamwork?
I’ve learned that a team works well when there is transparency, clear communication, and mutual respect. And that, often, giving space to others is not a loss of control
