Meet people behind the scenes of PyLadies Amsterdam
Giulia Caglia
Hello, everyone! My name is Giulia Caglia (she/her), and I am thrilled to join the PyLadies community as a co-organizer. I currently work as a Data Engineer for a dynamic scale-up in Amsterdam.
At PyLadies, I will be helping with the organization of our events and representing our community at various professional gatherings. My main motivation for taking on this role is to provide a supportive platform for individuals who are underrepresented in the Python world. I believe in the power of community and am passionate about creating inclusive spaces where everyone can learn and thrive.
Beyond my professional life, I enjoy reading, playing chess, and engaging in immersive Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. These hobbies help me stay creative and analytical, both of which are skills I bring into my professional and community endeavors.
