For the last two and a half years, Amy has worked as Community Development Manager for Community-Driven Innovation at TechSoup Global , but we knew her back when she was just setting out on the road to nptech super-stardom with the Meyer Memorial Trust right here in Portland, where she led our local 501 Tech Club.

I discovered NTEN and the nptech community about four years ago. I got involved with Oregon’s 501 Tech Club/Net2 Local Group PDXTech4Good shortly after I moved to Portland. Of course I cared about nptech, but I was new to town and wanted a way to find my place in the local community. We teach this.
