About

Having been there from the beginning, Sava has both the history and the future firmly in his sights. In 1999 he left his journalism career to lead the development of digital technology solutions for news media at Media Development Loan Fund’s Center for Advanced Media-Prague (CAMP). In 2010 he oversaw its spin-off as Sourcefabric. Hailing from Belgrade (a Partizan fan if you’re interested), Sava picked up a few languages (and his passion for Rio’s Vasco da Gama) as he moved around the world. He practices yoga and enjoys playing basketball and four-stringed musical instruments.

Pavla has been working with Sourcefabric since the very beginning. Over more than a decade she has been the backbone of our operations, with ever increasing responsibilities.

Vladimir takes the raw functionality of our products and turns them into something users enjoy working with. He's also the visionary behind the look and feel of our branding. He has more than a decade of graphic and web design experience, but it's not what he expected to do. As a little kid he wanted to be a garbage man — he says it has something to do with the orange vests. His interest in and love for comic book design and Blade Runner have probably influenced his approach as well: clear, communicative design with just a hint of the future to get you excited about coming to work.

Matt is from rural Illinois, just outside Chicago. He helps Sourcefabric users make the most of our great software!

I grew up in a small village in the country regions of Australia. It is here where I found my passion for software development, video games and the great outdoors. In 2005 I moved to Sydney to finish off my school years and later obtain a Diploma in Games Design & Development. Most of my work since has been in the Hospitality sector working on the software for networking devices and core infrastructure. Fast forward to 2017 where I joined AAP contributing to Superdesk. Since then I have moved to the Central Coast (north of Sydney), have a baby boy and enjoy working directly for Sourcefabric from home. When I'm not working I like to spend time with family, going to the beach, roughing it in the great outdoors (i.e. camping) and developing my own software.
