Hi, I'm Moriel, I create human-centered software and I speak about stuff

I speak in conferences, events and workshops.

My expertise is system localization and human-centered development.

I speak about:

  • Localization: supporting your user no matter where they are
  • Technical aspect of language support and translations
  • Open Source and developing Wikipedia in the open
  • Supporting non-Left to Right languages when developing products

If you want to invite me to speak in your event, please use the contact page.

You can also communicate with me over on twitter, or LinkedIn!

Some of my talks:

Evolving Wikipedia: A Case Study in Applying DDD
This talk will present a case study of utilizing Domain-Driven Design (DDD) methodologies to address the challenges of evolving Wikipedia's underlying system architecture.
