What we’re about
Welcome to SA Data Analytics and AI — San Antonio’s grassroots gang of data scientists, engineers, analysts, and curious humans who think turning chaos into insight is a good time.
Whether you’re shipping production models, debugging dashboards at midnight, or just figured out what MLOps actually means (no judgment), you belong here.
Our mission? Mentorship-first!
Because nobody gets into tech—or survives it—alone.
We’re here to lift each other up, swap skills, and pay it forward. Students, career-changers, and grizzled data veterans alike: there’s someone here for you to learn from and someone who needs your wisdom.
We’re for people passionate about:
- Business Intelligence (BI)
- Advanced Analytics
- Data Science
- Data Engineering
- Machine Learning Ops
- Artificial Intelligence
And all the buzzwords in between.
Our datanuts are digital explorers. We chase down insights, test new tools, and help organizations actually use their data—no fluff, no snake oil, just sharp minds and sharper questions.
Events like Talk Nerdy to Me bring it all together:
- Battle stories from the analytics trenches
- Show off your weirdest chart or proudest pipeline
- Complain about tools (and secretly show off your favorite one)
- Debate trends and dream up new ones
- Most importantly: find a mentor or become one
No gatekeeping. No slides. No pressure. Just drinks, data, and damn good conversations.
Who should join:
- Data pros across all dimensions: scientists, engineers, analysts, MLOps folks
- Students and early-career folks hunting for guidance
- Business leaders who want to get smarter with data
- Tech tinkerers and hobbyists
- Anyone who believes in the power of data, mentorship, and a little mischief

Mentorship is our mission
Community is our power.
Fun is non-negotiable.
Let’s turn San Antonio into a real-deal hub for data conversations that matter.
Come for the Python. Stay for the people.
