I, Ashish, would like to join as a co-organizer for the Cloud Native Community Foundation Gandhinagar and Ahmedabad chapter.

Over the past few years, I’ve been deeply involved in developer communities, open source initiatives, and technical education. As a software craftsperson and active contributor to multiple community groups, including WeDoTDD, The Hackers Meetup, the Open Source Community Foundation, and Ahmedabad Developer Club. I regularly organize events, mentor students and professionals, and help create collaborative and inclusive technical spaces.

My goal as a CNCG co-organizer is to strengthen the cloud-native community in Gandhinagar and Ahmedabad by hosting consistent, high-quality, vendor-neutral meetups and study groups. I am committed to promoting open source values, encouraging diverse speakers, and creating learning-focused environments where developers of all experience levels feel welcome.

With my background in community building, event organization, and hands-on cloud native/software engineering experience, I believe I can add meaningful value to the chapter and support its growth and engagement.
