We mentioned last year that we were looking to rev up on additional resources for the Stack Exchange network and this announcement is meant to support that claim. Due to the increased growth of our network sites, we found ourselves needing additional humans to help coordinate our plans for improving and refreshing our community experiences.
Please join me in welcoming Cesar Manara to our Stack Exchange Community manager team!
Cesar is a Theater grad who's been CMing in the Games Industry since 2013 and is also - not professionally - a Playwright.
When he's not at the computer, he enjoys watching plays, musicals, playing some board games (not Munchkin, ugh), reading (not only Stephen King!), some YA, Sci-fi and the occasional behavioral psychology.
He brings experience in managing multiple cultures and time-zones as well as a knowledge of Portuguese and human behavior.
...He also LARPs. Yes. Below you can find a cringy centuries-old (not really) pic of the ancient Ventrue.
Cesar will be working directly with me, Catija, and Nicolas on the SE sites and the International Stack Overflow communities. If you have any questions you'd like to ask Cesar, please do so here. He's new to the network so he'll be experiencing our sites with fresh eyes. If you see him around, please say "hello", or even better, "olá."

@AndrewMyers: It probably means you're too old (you didn't LARP yourself) or too young (your kids haven't encountered LARP for you). Or maybe you're just on the wrong continent — it's a term used in the USofA (at least on the west coast, probably the east too, and in the middle); I know not where else it is used.

@JonathanLeffler LARP. Means he likes to go collide some particles on his free time, what did you think it meant? Personally as a programmer, I mostly ARP and sometimes RARP.

I just want to say thanks for the warm welcome, everyone! Do expect me to show up around some meta sites, sites proper and some chats as I get acquainted with everything - but please give some time before we take off the training wheels. :)
In the coming days, and probably weeks, I'll be immersing myself on all things exchange - that said, feel free to reach out if you see me around or tag me in stuff!
All the best!

Welcome, Cesar!
You're both a new user here and an experienced community manager elsewhere, a rare combination. Will you consider sharing some of your experiences, impressions, and ideas for community growth as you learn your way around the SE network and its many different communities? I don't necessarily mean all in one place; some things might work better in blog posts, on per-site metas, or in casual conversation in sites' chat rooms. This seems like a great opportunity to talk with people in our communities so we can learn from each other.

Absolutely! I will definitely be hanging around, talking and writing more as time goes by and I get more familiar with everything. Hopefully, I'll be able to help the network and specific sites too!

Since it's unclear from the description here: do you code? Will those of us who inhabit Stack Overflow and the other computery Stack Exchanges be seeing you around, or are you going to be focused on the other sites?

Welcome to the network Cesar M.
As you are based somewhere, likely have been to some other places, you will be able to join in at Travel Stack Exchange.
If you have traveled or will travel you are even more welcome.
And as a chat user, may I point out that several of our sites have great chats, where you can meet the people and often ask questions that do not fit on the sites.
Flagged as spam :-P

I just want to say thanks for the warm welcome, everyone! Do expect me to show up around some meta sites, sites proper and some chats as I get acquainted with everything - but please give some time before we take off the training wheels. :)
In the coming days, and probably weeks, I'll be immersing myself on all things exchange - that said, feel free to reach out if you see me around or tag me in stuff!
All the best!

Just out of interest, is it a paid position you now have or are you a volunteer of some sort?

Welcome, Cesar!
You're both a new user here and an experienced community manager elsewhere, a rare combination. Will you consider sharing some of your experiences, impressions, and ideas for community growth as you learn your way around the SE network and its many different communities? I don't necessarily mean all in one place; some things might work better in blog posts, on per-site metas, or in casual conversation in sites' chat rooms. This seems like a great opportunity to talk with people in our communities so we can learn from each other.

Absolutely! I will definitely be hanging around, talking and writing more as time goes by and I get more familiar with everything. Hopefully, I'll be able to help the network and specific sites too!

Since it's unclear from the description here: do you code? Will those of us who inhabit Stack Overflow and the other computery Stack Exchanges be seeing you around, or are you going to be focused on the other sites?

Like it was publicly found on my Linkedin - I know only the basics. I did do 2 years of a CS bachelor but then swapped to Theater and finished 5 years in that instead. Though I did dabble on Cpnael, php and most front-end related stuff for funsies.

Welcome to the network Cesar M.
As you are based somewhere, likely have been to some other places, you will be able to join in at Travel Stack Exchange.
If you have traveled or will travel you are even more welcome.
And as a chat user, may I point out that several of our sites have great chats, where you can meet the people and often ask questions that do not fit on the sites.
Flagged as spam :-P

@AndrewMyers: It probably means you're too old (you didn't LARP yourself) or too young (your kids haven't encountered LARP for you). Or maybe you're just on the wrong continent — it's a term used in the USofA (at least on the west coast, probably the east too, and in the middle); I know not where else it is used.

@JonathanLeffler LARP. Means he likes to go collide some particles on his free time, what did you think it meant? Personally as a programmer, I mostly ARP and sometimes RARP. (A bunch of us go out in the forest dressed as MAC addresses and another bunch as IP numbers, then it is kind of like speed dating from there.)

"...we found ourselves needing additional humans to help coordinate our plans for improving and refreshing our community experiences." I'm sorry, but the most refreshing thing to me (and I'm sure many others) would be to avoid this kind of marketing speech and to be frank and straightforward instead. What does that even mean?
