Tim Schilling
I'm a software engineer that loves Django and our community. I'm on the Django Steering Council, a cofounder of Djangonaut Space and an admin of Django Commons. I've been helping maintain django-debug-toolbar and a few other packages. Outside of the software world, I enjoy baking bread, writing, roasting coffee, homebrewing, making hot sauce, and hanging out with my two cats Beef and Roland. Oh and I'm trying to learn the violin!
Rachell Calhoun
I'm Rachell, co-founder of Djangonaut Space and a Django developer. I love building practical, user-friendly tools and creating communities where people walk away with new skills, confidence, and some new friends. I've organized Django Girls workshops across multiple countries and continents for over 10 years, an experience that inspired and informed me to co-found Djangonaut Space. I also currently serve as a trustee for Django Girls, alongside organizing both PyLadies and DjangoCon US events. When I'm not helping others navigate their journey into open source, I love consuming all the kinds of things Tim makes. I'm currently deep into learning a stringed instrument of my own: guitar. My two cats, Mio and Beka, have notes.
