Speaker bio

I’m a computer science undergrad student from NIET, Greater Noida, Delhi NCR, India and also work a full stack developer intern for Alteora Solutions Inc. based in Canada. I’ve been in the community scene since only a year, volunteering for PyCon India and other regional technical group based in Delhi NCR. Community is where I learn a better perspective of looking into technology and creating cool stuff. If you stumble upon my profile on any of the social platform with @realslimshanky, say ‘HI’.
