I'm Alex Clark, a senior data engineer working in healthcare innovation. I've been using Python professionally for over a decade to build and manage data pipelines that support research, education, and internal tooling. Although I haven't contributed directly to open source or been actively involved in the public Python community, Python is at the core of almost everything I build. I work extensively behind the scenes, mentoring teammates, maintaining internal codebases, and solving the kinds of data problems that often don't make it into conference talks but are essential nonetheless. I'm passionate about helping others grow as developers and making tools that are clear, reliable, and easy to maintain. If I'm elected to the PSF board, I'd like to represent folks like me, people who use Python every day in practical, less-visible ways. I care about making sure Python stays approachable and useful to a wide range of users. I’d also like to help the PSF reach more communities and industries that rely on Python but don’t always feel connected to the broader ecosystem. Thanks for considering me.
