Hello everyone, I’m Madhav Kauntia, a second year student pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering in the field of Computer Science from Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra, India. This is my first time working with OpenMRS and I look forward to contributing as a part of my GSoC’19 project. I have already gone through the DevManual and set up my development environment. I look forward to working on some code reviews and becoming familiar with the usage of the Jira Tracker. I have a lot of doubts and I look forward to healthy interaction with the other developers who can guide me. I really hope I get to make a difference here, and learn a lot while doing so. Thank you!

Hi, I am surprised to know that google code-in has a grand prize of visiting their headquarters. Also, openMRS talk looks like a safe place to talk with other people. This is my first year participating in google code-in and am excited to start coding. I expect OpenMRS talk to be a place where I can safely communicate with other people.

Hi everyone! I’m Jennifer, the new community manager. Here are some things about me:

- I’m really impressed with how active this community is - not to mention welcoming!
- I like helping people make connections, find what they are looking for - and maybe something they weren’t looking for.
- I’ve worked with a number of teams involved with KenyaEMR, eSaude, laboratory systems (including open source LIS), and supply chain management.
- Some of my work has been around growing online communities, writing requirements, testing, capacity building, and implementation planning.
- I try to run a half marathon every year - and recently came to accept that I’m not even close to being as fast as Mary Keitany. 🙂
