I have community experience from leading PyLadies Porto
Alegre and from helping organize Django Girls workshops in my
state.
I am a big advocate for Free Software ever since I started
working in a school. Since then, I became involved with a
hackerspace in my city (Mate Hackers) and worked into promoting
Free Software and its philosophy among my friends, focusing on
the women I know.
I like Debian a lot and it's my go-to distribution whenever
I have to make a new GNU/Linux install. I've been looking into
ways to contribute, but so far all I have done to help was
working on some translations for a few Debian derivatives. I am
still working on advancing my programming skils, but I looked
into the project to help with the calendar of social events
and conferences and I feel like that is something I can
work on, in particular because I can use Python, which is my
favorite language to study. I also appreciate the need for
having a good project like this developed in a way that can be
useful to other free software communities.
Right now, I am preparing my Outreachy application. I got
into the IRC channel yesterday and I was glad to be pointed out
to the task I have to do (the Github issue) and I have already
started working on a solution to submit as soon as possible.
Cheers!
Renata
