About — in the speaker's own words
I am a core contributor to Pandas and Apache Arrow, and one of the maintainers of GeoPandas and Shapely. I did a PhD at Ghent University and VITO in air quality research, worked at the Paris-Saclay Center for Data Science and at Voltron Data contributing to Apache Arrow. I am a freelance open source software developer and teacher.
