Introduction

I'm Ryan, one of the co-organizers of PySprings. I'm a Colorado Springs native and have been involved in Python for 11 years. I mostly work on web stuff, but also enjoy graphics programming, machine learning and scientific computing.

What's the way you got here? (there are no wrong answers)

My co-organizer Tim suggested we create one after PyCon 2011. As a Pythonista, I *had* to jump on the chance. I use python because I think it's elegant and beautiful.

What would you like to happen in this meetup? (there are no wrong answers)

I'd like for us to have a friendly, collaborative group that supports each other with all the general goals that we have. I'd especially like to have a friendly, diverse group that feels comfortable learning with each other.

What experience or expertise do you have that might be of interest to others? (there are no wrong answers)

I'm pretty good at facilitating self-organizing meetings and groups, so that's a skill that I'll bring. I also know the dark corners of Python well, and a lot of the more esoteric packages on PyPI (libraries for people to use).

  • Thanks Ryan. I had a good time.
