Welcome to the community @sanket !!
Hello everyone, I’m Manohar, doing my Masters in Biology from an Indian College. I love open source just like u guys. I’m curious to see what OpenMRS has to offer the world and what I have to contribute to OpenMRS 
Hi my name is Carty Castaldi, I live in Cambridge (the Boston one).
I have some ideas, I doubt they are new or unique, about building technology to deliver a much more patient-centered experience in healthcare. In particular I feel - ahem - somewhat strongly that patients should own their healthcare data and administer access to it in order to maximize the effectiveness of their care.
I am happy to talk bout it endlessly but for now I want to experiment a bit with building some web UIs on top of OpenMRS to look at scaling. My dream is to begin to sign up thousands of users here in the US as well as the developing world with a not-for-profit platform starting in the cloud.
I’m 60 I have been blessed with a wonderful career, raised two boys in Andover North of Boston and am now seriously enjoying emptynesterhood.
You all are obviously doing important work, thank you. I look forward to learning more and, I very much hope, making a contribution.

Hi Everyone,
My name is Mohil Palav, I am a graduate student at Drexel University. I am doing my Master’s program in Computer science. I was excited to learn about OpenMRS in my class this Spring. I’m willing to contribute to this project and wish to expand my knowledge in Java and MySQL.

Hi Everyone,
My name is Aditya Chaudhari and I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Computer Science at Drexel university. For the Spring Quarter I have taken this wonderful subject Open source software engineering(OSSE) in which I came across the OpenMRS software. I found that this is a wonderful software for making medical records. I also have experience of JAVA and MySQL which also attracted me to this software project. I am very eager to contribute to this project as a software developer.
You’re all welcome to the caring community. Those interest as Developers, starting from here is absolutely wise and helpful. Thanks; @manoharv9, @carty, @kisma, @mohilpalav, & @adityac1305

However, one is not at all limited for the community has different areas one can like contributing to, either as his/her choice to learn or as his/her area of expertise to help others interested in the particular area as follows a few to mention in addition; Documentation, Testing, Analysis, Design etc.
Feel therefore comfortable to freely allocate your interest. Ask the community members with confidence of appropriate response, although it may tarry a bit but it will surely come to your way. I wish you a safe journey. 
Hello,
I’m another Drexel University graduate student. My name is Ian Franklin and I’m pursuing a Master’s in Software Engineering. I also came across OpenMRS in an open source class and am very interested in getting involved. I hope to gain experience working within an open source community, and hope I can contribute in any way I can. I’m a Java programmer and would love to gain experience developing on a real project, but I am open to helping with documentation, testing, or any other areas as well. Hope to get to know some of you soon!
