Isabela has been part of the free software community since the late 90s, and in 2007 she co-founded and worked as Latin America Project Manager for North by South, a startup from San Francisco focused on free software projects. Isabela Bagueros joined the Tor Project as Project Manager in 2015, after working as Product Manager for International and Growth at Twitter for four years. Shari will join the Tor Project Board of Directors beginning January 2019. Shari will continue as Executive Director until Isabela transitions and then plans to move into a consulting role through the end of the year. Now in a transition phase, Isabela will officially begin her position as Executive Director after she hires her replacement Project Manager and gets up to speed on the requirements of the job. I’m looking forward to seeing Tor gain global recognition for the privacy protections and censorship circumvention it provides.” “That means we need a healthy and scalable network and a strong and diverse organization to support that. “I think any person on the planet should have access to the Tor network and enjoy the privacy and security it provides,” said Isa.
Thinking of the user first has always been a priority for Isa, and during her three years with the organization, the scope of her vision for Tor has expanded to include the health of the organization and network. “She brings global experience and perspective to privacy and censorship issues, and I could not be more confident in her ability to lead the organization into its next phase of growth and sustainability.”
“Isa’s contributions to Tor are too many to name here,” said Shari Steele, Tor’s current Executive Director who was brought on in 2015 to make the organization more operationally sound. She also leads Tor’s UX team in implementing critical usability improvements and is leading an overhaul of Tor’s website. Isa joined the Tor Project as Project Manager in 2015 and has led teams in collaborative strategy building and roadmapping unprecedented at the organization. We're thrilled to announce our next ED, Isabela Bagueros. Shari announced her retirement from the Tor Project at the end of February, and the search for our next Executive Director is already over.
