Speaker bio

I am currently working as a hacker at WalletKit, Inc, where I do majority of the work in the backend(Python) codebase. I have been working with Python for almost a year now. Previously, I worked at Komlimobile, where I was a part of the front end team and also played an important role in scaling our infrastructure using HBase.

I love the Python language and the community surrounding it. This has instilled a desire in me to give back to the community in whatever way I can. Hence, I have volunteered for the event as well.

I have done quite a bit of presentations and talks in my college days, though they were mostly related to marketing.

If my proposal is accepted, I'll prepare myself well and be ready on time for the event.
