hello
Hi, I’m Nina.
I’m an expert developer with over a decade of experience, a passion for speaking and teaching, and a track record for getting things done. I currently focus on Python at Microsoft on the Cloud Developer Advocacy team.
I’m based out of Portland, OR where I enjoy snowboarding, hiking, drinking scotch, and tinkering with hardware, LEDs, and wearable electronics.
learn python
I recently released a video series for learning Python. Check out my Python Fundamentals and Intermediate Python courses.

In the past, I’ve written software for:

- code that’s helped people connect over their passions at Meetup
- and implemented time-wasting features on Reddit
See LinkedIn for more.
passions
I love teaching developers, and I’ve spoken at conferences around the world like PyCon Russia, EuroPython, and DjangoCon. In 2019, I gave the closing keynote at PyCon US, and co-organized Mentored Sprints for Diverse Beginners.
