My software development journey started with the open source and Apache Arrow project. More specifically, I started with contributing to the Arrow R package in 2021. After that I have contributed to other open source projects connected to the Python dataframe API standard as a part of my internship at Quansight. I became an Apache Arrow committer in 2022 after regularly contributing to Apache Arrow (Python) since 2021.
