Hi, I'm [bandali][bandali], and I'm a computing scientist and activist for user freedom. I wear [a few hats][bandali-gnu] around the [GNU Project][gnu], and I'm a volunteer member of the [FSF][fsf] [SysOps][sysops] and a participant in several other [free software][freesw] projects and communities. I first got involved with EmacsConf back in 2015 when I helped organize [[EmacsConf 2015|2015]], mainly taking care of the infra, and was the chief organizer for EmacsConf [[2019]] and [[2020]]. I'm currently a core organizer of EmacsConf and the sysadmin looking over the EmacsConf infra. You can reach me via email by writing to me at or , or via IRC by messaging me (`bandali`) on the [Libera.Chat][libera] network. You can find me on various free software-related channels there, such as `#gnu`, `#emacs`, and `#emacsconf`.
