Bi-weekly, on Wednesdays, Developer Drop-In is a chance for developers to get their questions answered live on stream and meet the people who build the libraries and sample apps they know and love. Lorna is the host, often joined by other team members. She takes questions from the audience and builds something as a more detailed answer to questions the team receives on StackOverflow or the community slack.
Lorna is a software engineer with an incurable blogging habit. She works on the Developer Relations team at Nexmo and tries to tame words and code in equal measure.
