=== 3:45 - 4:15: Jessica McKellar, on the Boston Python Workshop ===


The Boston Python Workshop is a free, project-driven introduction to the Python programming language for women and their friends. With 3 iterations under its belt since March and no sign of slowing down, the Workshop has brought over 100 women into the Python community in Boston. It has also inspired similar outreach events across the globe. Hear from Jessica McKellar, the lead organizer for the Boston Python Workshop, about lessons learned running this open source diversity and outreach event and what it takes to run your own!
Jessica McKellar is a software engineer at Ksplice, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oracle. She helped organize the first Boston Python Workshop, and now is the lead organizer.
