How did you become a developer advocate?

I started creating content for my previous companies' blogs and then created ProstDev to help other co-workers get started as content creators! This helped me gain basic knowledge of SEO, marketing, social networks, community, etc. Then I just applied for a job and got it 😁

How did you become a DataWeave expert?

I had to use it a lot in previous projects and the requirements were very complex. I needed to create performant code because the applications were massive, so I had to learn how to do this. You can also try to:

• Search for existing DataWeave questions in the Mule forums or in StackOverflow (even if they've already been answered)

• Read all the DataWeave docs and try out different examples to see how the behavior changes

• Consume a lot of content from the community and learn how they use it or what problems they solved
