A Pragmatic Perspective by Nino D'Aversa

Married, Mozilla and More

Wow, so it seems I have misplaced my blog this summer. However getting married, moving and taking an epic honeymoon can do that to blogs. It’s been a whirl wind kind of summer, full of change. It’s hard to know where to start, so I’ll start with what matters most.

Being a married man, now for over a month, I can safely say I am both lucky and very much in love. It seems all those years Tasha and I enjoyed as a couple has us well prepared for the life of husband and wife. We have fallen into a wonderfully collaborative effort of eating, cleaning and entertaining. We have both spent a great deal of time preparing our home and we are finally enjoying the fruits of our labour, and it’s fantastic!

When I last blogged my internship at Mozilla had just begun, as I write this I find it came and went too quickly. Opportunity doesn’t always come at the right moment, but you need to seize it nonetheless. I’m so happy that I took the chance to work with Mozilla this summer — even if life had me pulled in too many directions. Spending time in California meeting Stuart, Doug, Mark and others was rewarding. During these last few months I have kept my eyes and ears open and the thing I take most from the experience is how dedicated and passionate they all are. It has inspired me to find that same passion in what I choose to do from now on. I’m spending my time now to take a look at the job market to find what best suits me, my skills and my passions. My home life is already proving to be rather fulfilling and I have decided I will settle for nothing less in my professional life.

I’m choosing to leave this blog post on the shorter side, it’s impossible to catchup with everything that has happened. However, some parting notes, I plan on remaining a contributor to the Mozilla project – the experience can only be surpassed by it’s importance, these are world class developers and I still have so much to learn and contribute.

I also would like to take a moment to thank Silvana from Impulse Photography, she has a track record of producing some of the most unique and creative photography around, and our wedding was no exception. With that I leave you with moments from our big day – Thanks Silvana!
