Hi. I am Nzima Ghislain. I am from Uganda. I am here to learn(and teach) DE. I speak 5 languages(most of them are african languages), I am a talented vocalist and an algorithmic trader. I have given 3 interesting things instead of one :upside_down_face: maybe that’s the 4th interesting thing about me. Looking forward to this. Cheers

My name is Kwaku Agyarko-Denteh. I’m making a career change, and my interest is in Data Engineering. Hope this great program will fulfill my aspiration and passion for this emerging and now standalone field. I live in New Jersey, USA, but originally from Ghana.

Hi @pastorsoto

I am Sarosh from Australia, currently working as Software engineering. Recently was looking to learn some concepts of Data Engineering. Which interest me more to deep dive into data and make it effective pipeline of data.

Saw your post on LinkedIn and looking forward to starting my journey of learning Data Engineering.

Really appreciate your efforts relating to creating a study group, and help in learning.

Hello everyone! My name is Francisco, and I’m from Colombia, South America. I’m excited to be here and looking forward to engaging with all of you. A little bit about me: I’m transitioning from a marketing background to the fields of data science and data analytics, and I’m particularly interested in data engineering. I’m eager to learn from all of you and share my knowledge as well. I wish everyone a great learning experience!

Hi @franciscoagamez Welcome to the study group! What are the thing that make you go into data engineering? Do you had any experience in your life or work?

Hello Francisco! Is always great to find Colombian people, I’m Irina and I am from Colombia too, and I decided to explore this new world for me about data engineering, looking to ground the foundations of a long journey in the AI field. I think that starting from data engineering will help me to better understand the real challenges that companies are facing right now, with the vast amount of data and multiple technology tools in the arena.

I’m excited about this learning experience and I hope to bring some insights and value of my journey.
