I am a certified Data and Software Carpentry instructor and have been helping with coding/data science workshops since 2018. I am also a lead maintainer for the Python for Atmosphere and Ocean Scientists Data Carpentry lesson. I organized and led the Washington State University Python Working Group, a group for students and professionals to share Python knowledge, during the '21/'22 school year.
Tutorials I've written:
