We're excited to welcome Jorge Sanz, our new team member based in the Madrid office, who will help users on complex projects as a solution architect. Jorge comes from Valencia with a background in surveying geodesy and cartography engineering, having worked on research before transitioning into software development for an Open Source GIS desktop tool called gvSIG. He's been involved with OSGeo since 2006, serving as a Foundation Charter Member and Board of Directors member, contributing to the administration of systems and helping coordinate local geospatial activities in Valencia. Jorge is also part of Geoinquietos Valencia, a group that organizes mapathons, workshops, and other events for geographers and enthusiasts. In his free time, he enjoys sailing and hopes to change his computer keyboard into a helm or rope soon.
