Meet the Aleph Team

Hey everyone! :wave:

Welcome to our Aleph Discourse Community.

My name is Taofiqah (she/her), OCCRP’s Aleph Community Manager. It’s fantastic to have you all here with us! Our team will be introducing themselves in this thread so you can get to know us a bit better.

Here are a few fun facts about me:

*My favourite place visited so far is the enchanting city of Paris :fr:.
*Tyla’s Push 2 Start :notes: is currently on repeat in my playlist.
*I’ve recently taken up the gym :weight_lifting_woman: as one of my hobbies.

If you have any questions about the community, feel free to reach out to me. And by the way, did you know we’re on X? Follow us at @alephdata for the latest Aleph news and updates!

Hi everyone! :wave:

Ezana (she/her) here, Aleph Lead and Product Manager at OCCRP. It’s wonderful to welcome you all to our community! :tada:

As part of growing this Discourse community, we’ve created the Community Introductions category to help us get to know each other better. We would love to learn more about you!

I’ve been with OCCRP for nearly 3.5 years, starting on the IT Helpdesk team and working my way through Investigative Tooling to my current role in Data Platforms. I’ve had the privilege of wearing many hats and collaborating with amazing teams to develop exciting products—stay tuned for updates on our progress!

Here are a few fun facts about me:

  • I spent a good 7 years traveling (visited 33 countries) and basically lived out of a suitcase. :airplane:
  • I’m a proud cat mom, despite being extremely allergic (>100% :sweat_smile:).
  • I’m a big Call of Duty fan and have competed in tournaments—won most of them too. :cowboy_hat_face:

If you ever have questions or just want to chat, feel free to message me here on Discourse or shoot me an email. You can also connect with me on LinkedIn.

Looking forward to building this community together! :raised_hands:

Hello everyone!

I’m Chris (he/him), Aleph Tech Lead for the OCCRP. I’ve been with the org for a bit more than 2 years now, working as a Software Developer on Aleph and our hosted Aleph instance at aleph.occrp.org.

I’m glad we have this Discourse instance available to keep in touch with the community and archive the knowledge that is being shared here for the long run.

Note that although this is a message board we are currently trying out the chat function as well, so if you have a quick question or shout-out to us feel free to start there.

Cheers,
Chris
