👋 I'm a scientific Python engineer & general problem solver. I seem to have some success building open-source communities and tools, including conda-forge and SciTools (notably Iris, cartopy, cf-units), and I was previously a maintainer of matplotlib. Bringing Python to accelerator controls at CERN.
