Hi everyone! I’m Selina, and I’m from California (in the US). I am a high school student, and that is how my interest in programming began. Although I love coding, but I am still somewhat of a beginner. I can write code in Python and some Java. I look forward to getting to interact with all you lovely people through OpenMRS and GCI!

Hello everyone! My name is Theresa, and I’m a fifteen year old student, living in Ghana. This is my first year participating in GCI and I instantly knew that the OpenMRS community was one that I wanted to join and contribute to, not only during the competition, but afterwards as well. It’s great to meet you all and Happy New Year in advance (4 hours and 44 minutes left, here in Ghana).

Hi everyone, forgot to introduce myself 
I’m Zoë, a 17 year old student from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I came to know about OpenMRS through Google Code-In. I like writing 
, making videos 
, ice hockey, science 
, cats 
and helping others. The OpenMRS community has been very welcoming and helpful these past few weeks . Finishing high school puts you at crossroads, it’s pretty hard choosing a career path at only 17. I would have never thought of studying computer science 
before December last year. However, my experience with OpenMRS on Google Code-In has opened my eyes on how open sourcing, health IT and computer science can make an impact in the world. With confidence I can now say that I do know what path I intend on and I definitely will continue contributing to OpenMRS
