With over 10 years of experience in the Python and open-source communities, I’ve contributed both as a developer and an organiser. I’m a founding member of Python Namibia and have co-founded PyCon Africa and DjangoCon Africa, bringing developers together from across the continent. I’ve spoken at open-source events globally, introducing Python to new communities and discussing the value of open-source collaboration. I also contribute to various open-source projects, focusing on improving community content and engagement.
