Introduction
Hi there 👋 my name is Weddy from Kenya. I am currently an outreachy participant, working on the Zarr project, “Testing the support and interoperability of Zarr Zip Stores” A brief rundown of my interests vary from coding to watching a good heart wrenching tv show. The duality of a woman they say.
Core Values
Growth
I try to challenge myself in all aspects of my life. The big leap I took was to dip my toes in programming coming from a finance and accounting background. Quite challenging I’ll tell you that but I’m still here, learning and enjoying every bit of it.
Curiosity
My simple take on life is that life is about being curious, exploring and seeking novelty. If I wasn’t curious, life would be meaningless and this value has been helping me achieve my goal in life which is to deliver products that have a positive impact in people’s lives.
What motivated me to apply to Outreachy
Having no clear direction on how and where to start my new found career path, I reached out to a friend who introduced me to outreachy which led me to open source and the beautiful community that is Zarr. I am grateful for the opportunity and can’t wait to see what Zarr has in store for me!
