Yes, you have. This conference has been — it was just day 2 of a 4-day conference and it’s been — would you say it’s been an amazing success, 3,000-plus people. For our industry, that’s a really huge attendance. We’re up like mid-single digits percentage from last year. So thank you for making it special.

We have not met in person before. So delighted to meet you in person. Thanks for making this trip. I know we talked about your background a little bit after an earnings call or so. And maybe we could start with your background. I know you worked at Microsoft. I believe you worked at Adobe. So you’ve been at storied software franchises. And as you reflect upon your prior background, what are the things that you experienced with Microsoft and Adobe and New Relic that are so applicable to the task at hand at GitLab. And then I want to ask about where you see the company going, but let’s start with your background first.
