 **Member Stats** Orest is currently ranked the #3 most engaged member of the Postman Community forum. He’s sent more than 140 replies to questions and has read 1,400 posts in the last year. **Motivation** “My motivation comes from years of learning software development and APIs from the internet and from colleagues. Both have been generous enough to share their time and knowledge with me, so I can learn everything related to APIs. After learning so much, I’ve wanted to give back the same knowledge that I was taught to the community at large. I recently got into Postman at work, as we were transitioning testing tools. Since then, I decided to join the Community forum and share everything I know—and the new things I continue to learn. It’s been a rewarding journey to see others achieve their IT and career goals with the help I’ve offered through my YouTube videos and within the Postman Community. It’s an infectious feeling.” **Musings** Read Orest’s super insightful [Postman Visualizer: More Than Meets the Eye](https://blog.postman.com/how-to-visualize-api-data-in-postman/) guest post on the Postman blog.
