In addition to being a member of FOSS4G 2017's spectacular local organizing committee, Aleda has been an active member of the MA/Boston GIS community for over 20 years. As Web Services Manager at MassGIS Aleda was instrumental in making the agency's pivot from ESRI to GeoServer over a decade ago (and on a personal note, MassGIS's web portal was my first encounter with FOSS4G in use "in the wild", which had a significant impact on my younger self). Aleda is a devoted proponent of open source geo who puts a ton of effort & time into the community.
