What Would You Do With Sacha Chua?

Within Toronto’s Web community, Sacha Chua has become one of the leading “personalities”. Armed with infectious enthusiasm, charm and smarts, she would be an excellent person to hire once she graduates from UoT. The key question is how best to use her talents. It would probably be as a “super customer service rep, who can come into a bad situation and get everyone happy by the time she leaves. If I was an HR person from Microsoft, IBM,, etc. I’d be knocking on Sacha’s door ASAP.
… and they did! John Oxley (director of community evangelism,
Microsoft Canada) got in touch with me right after reading your blog
post. Mark, you rock!
Thanks for such a warm recommendation! As I briefly mentioned at
DemoCamp10 last Monday, my supervisor and I are thinking of wrapping
things up by April. Perfect timing, really – maybe I can even talk
about IBM 2.0 at Mesh! (We’re playing around with some *seriously*
cool stuff.) I would definitely love a tech evangelist role, and I’m
looking forward to learning more about that and
networking/relationship building!
