From Volunteer to Organizer: Growing with PyLadies Seoul
I began my journey with PyLadies Seoul as a volunteer at PyCon KR, and quickly resonated with the community’s mission of building an inclusive space for women developers. Inspired, I joined as an organizer, contributing to our year-end celebration, leading the Fluent Python study group, and participating in PyCon KR 2025.
Along the way, I connected with PyLadies chapters from other countries and collaborated with fellow organizers to drive meaningful change. Together, we successfully rebooted PyLadies Seoul, creating a vibrant, welcoming space for women from diverse backgrounds.
This talk shows how small steps of engagement can grow into leadership and impact. If you’ve ever wondered how to move from participant to contributor, my story demonstrates that starting where you are—with curiosity and care—can make a difference.
