I met Vahid a couple of years ago and I’m pretty sure he will be a great addition to the program. Congrats!

Dear education colleagues,
I'm delighted to introduce the newest member of the WMF education team, Vahid Masrour https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:VMasrour_(WMF). Vahid joins as our Community Capacity Manager, and will be working with groups like the Wikipedia Education Collaborative https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Education/Wikipedia_Education_Collaborative and other global education program leaders and affiliates to make sure they have the support they need to be successful.
Vahid will be working remotely from Quito, Ecuador for his first few months before moving with his family to San Diego. A little more about Vahid in his own words:
World citizen, with a strong experience in South America, I have resided
in 6 countries so far, and plan to keep on moving. I am keenly interested in transformation of educational processes using technology as a lever. I have been part of the Ecuador User Group since its inception (2013), as the education program specialist, and am a firm believer that “Knowledge is as wings to man's life, and a ladder for his ascent. Its acquisition is incumbent upon everyone.”
Originally trained as a psychologist, I’ve been learning about community
development through development projects and volunteer service. The overlap of my interests in education, technology and community development now finds a peculiarly interesting expression through my work at the WMF, where I can now serve by enabling a global community’s efforts towards the “growth, development and distribution of free, multilingual, educational content, and to providing the full content of these wiki-based projects to the public free of charge”.
Please join me in welcoming Vahid to the education team (on-list or on-wiki https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:VMasrour_(WMF))!
