Hey everyone!

My name is Nate Bagley. I'm the new Community Manager here at Workfront.

My job is to support you, answer your questions, facilitate conversations, help you get to know the Workfront software better, and make this community a cool place for you to visit regularly. I'm really excited to get to know you all personally.

I'd love it if you'd upload a profile picture of yourself here is a walkthrough of how to do that if you get stuck ) and then introduce yourself briefly in the comments below by answering one or all of these questions:

How do you use Workfront?

What would make this community amazing for you?

How much time do you spend using Workfront on a daily basis?

What are you passionate about (other than work)?

What's your favorite joke?

Here's a little about me: I'm very passionate about podcasting, I love Lindy Hop dancing, my guilty pleasure is the Muppets, and I'm super excited to be here at Workfront. I know the team here cares about you a lot. They're really excited to meet a bunch of you at LEAP in a few weeks. Ok, your turn! Upload that profile picture , and introduce yourself!

Hi there! My name is Kat Lyon. And although I'm not new to Workfront, I am new to The University of Texas at Austin as a Design Project Manager in the Marketing and Creative Services department. I was brought on not only to help manage creative projects but also to help implement Workfront and to be an admin for the system. (UT Austin successfully poached me from NXP where I implemented and was an admin for Workfront, and a marketing project manager.) So, right now, you could say I'm starting from scratch again, and gladly. I love a good challenge! Our team is about to have its' kickoff call with the Workfront Implementation team next week and start the process of building out our instance. Since I've done this all before, I'm just itching to get into the system and make the necessary modifications to "make it our own." I especially want to see if I can improve upon anything from my past implementation experience. So, while we are not technically using Workfront yet, we have started drinking the Kool-Aid, and in vast amounts. But I do know once we get our instance up and running, I'll be in it A LOT! As for the Community, I think the depth and breadth of knowledge available within it is what is going to make it invaluable to me, at least. To know that there are others in the community with varying degrees of experience with the tool who may have insight into a particular issue I may be having with Workfront is amazing! When I'm not working on fun creative projects for UT Austin or strategizing on our Workfront implementation, I spend time with my family. I also enjoy reading books and watching films, especially anime. I just LOVE Hayao Miyazaki and the Studio Ghibli Films! That's about it. Thanks for having me!

Hi Jana! Welcome to the community. I live just North of you just off highway 301. I work in Jacksonville. There are a few WorkFront customers in Jacksonville I know about – Florida Blue has a strong presence on the community too. Please don't be shy. Ask any question, you'll be happy with how the community responds. Eric

Hello everyone. My name is Therese Graff. As a project manager, I've been using MS Project forever. I recently joined a company, where part of the organization has been using Workfront for several years. I like being able to build and share the schedule collaboratively. So we decided to use Workfront for the entire project. It's an adventure. Therese
