Hi everyone! In our Community Engineers Spotlight series, we’re highlighting the passionate individuals who unleash their expertise to support, guide, and empower fellow developers. These community-driven experts are solving problems, sharing knowledge, and building solutions to help make your journey with Auth0 easier. Today, get to know @teodor.andrei 🙂

**Christina: Can you share a bit about yourself? What does a typical day look like for you?**

Teodor: Once coffee ☕ is on my desk, I start looking at the topics that were posted after my previous shift. If I’m not familiar with their subject and they are solved by my colleagues, I make sure to read and learn from their solution. Then I assign myself the cases I know I can solve and start working on them. 🧑‍💻

**Christina: What inspired you to become a community engineer in the Auth0 Community, and how did you get started in tech?**

Teodor: I started in tech with a Computer Science degree in Denmark, followed by 2 years of working as a .NET and Angular developer. Then I moved back home to Romania, and I found this position with Auth0. 📔 As a CS student, I watched a lot of YouTube videos of Okta and Auth0 conferences and learning materials, so I had to take this opportunity to be a part of Auth0.

**Christina: Can you share a memorable or rewarding moment you’ve had while helping developers in the Auth0 Community?**

Teodor: Every time I get a thank you, it means that someone is no longer stuck in their work, and that’s rewarding to me. 😃

**Christina: Outside of your role as a community engineer, what’s something about you that people might be surprised to learn?**

Teodor: Outside of my role, I try to spend as much time as possible in nature, away from technology. 🗻 But when that’s not possible because of the weather, I play video games and I build my own software tools to be as efficient as possible in the games I play. 🎮

**Christina: If you could give one piece of advice to someone new to the Auth0 Community, what would it be?**

Teodor: I think it’s important to first thoroughly search 🔎 the community for the information you are looking for before creating a new post to ask your question. This creates a habit of researching before asking, which is essential for a developer, and it also helps the community by keeping the forum clean of duplicates.

**Christina: Outside of work, what do you enjoy doing?**

Teodor: I like spending time in nature, so I go on hikes, I do gardening, and my main hobby is observing, identifying, and photographing species of plants and animals. 🪻

Thanks for sharing, Teodor! Stay tuned because we have a few more community engineers to feature! 🤝 See previous features [here](https://community.auth0.com/c/community-news/community-engineers/116).
