>>> I have attended PyTennessee 2018 last year and met both Trey and Anna there. 
>>> I also attended PyCon 2018 last year and enjoyed it a lot as well as went to multiple Open Spaces sessions following advice from several blog posts (including https://treyhunner.com/2018/04/how-to-make-the-most-of-your-first-pycon/ <https://treyhunner.com/2018/04/how-to-make-the-most-of-your-first-pycon/>).

>>> I am currently a post-doctoral researcher at University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center. I use Python on a daily basis to write and maintain scientific software for the lab that I work for, and for some system administration and for fun as well.

>>> 
>>> I am planning to addend PyCon this year and submitted an abstract for the poster session.
>>> 
>>> After attending my first PyCon 2018 last year I thought that I should do volunteering for PyCon and after seeing call for volunteers for Open Spaces I thought it is a great opportunity to get more involved and do something awesome for the  Python Community.
>>> 
>>> I remember a lot of people were taking pictures of the Open Spaces board to see what sessions are scheduled. I thought it would be nice to through some simple automation into it:
>>>    * Create google spreadsheet with available times and rooms.
>>>    * Create a dedicated twitter account for open sessions if it is not already exists.
>>>    * Use one of the available python libraries that interact with google spreadsheet (e.g. https://github.com/xflr6/gsheets <https://github.com/xflr6/gsheets>, https://github.com/nithinmurali/pygsheets <https://github.com/nithinmurali/pygsheets>)
>>>    * Have a python script that goes over the upcoming Open Sessions and tweets room number, time and topic.
>>> 
>>> I am happy to help with all tasks specified in the call for volunteer document  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cl8eejx6C8rNgSwCvW6ozgt-1F2zQ7NpH1Qr982H7tQ/edit <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cl8eejx6C8rNgSwCvW6ozgt-1F2zQ7NpH1Qr982H7tQ/edit>
