Please be patient, it is a recent initiative, but at some point we will make an impact, I promise. The [https://pad.fixme.ch/p/uccc1 minutes of our first meeting are on Fixme's etherpad] and our 2nd meeting is planned for Aug 28th 18h30-19h30.<br>

| − | In a nutshell, my job --big part of it is volunteer work, please be excellent-- is to do as much as I can realistically do to keep every member/resident at UniverCité happy.<br>

| − | Talk to me if I said or wrote or did something that hurts you, please do so before going vocal about it with anybody else, and please keep in mind there is a fair chance I did so unintentionally. It tends to help fixing things faster, and it is way better for our respective stress levels on the long run too.<br>

We met Carmelo and his boss, and made UniverCité the home for this project in May 2014, being the first pioneers to become residents. The association itself was created in Aug. 2014.

I used to be a passive Fixme member and UniverCité's Community Satisfaction Officer.
I co-founded Hackuarium, home of your weird biology-loving next-door neighbors (wait, our lab doesn't have doors) at UniverCité, with Luc Henry in February 2014.
