“We want to use our fantastic virtual conference as an opportunity to give back,” said Jonas Moe, SVP of Marketing for Ellie Mae. “As we have watched the COVID-19 pandemic unfold, it has touched and changed all of us. Whether we are acclimating to working from home, pulling double duty helping our kids with their schoolwork or learning to use technology to stay connected during this time of social distancing, we’re all experiencing a new normal. But for the people on the front lines – the doctors, nurses, researchers, firefighters, police officers and so many other critical caregivers – this is our chance to say thank you.”
