:The first goal is to create a Raspberry Pi image and build scripts based on Raspbian that can serve Sugarizer to a classroom full of students. This is being created because the Raspberry Pi is inexpensive, widely available and many such Sugarizer School Boxes can provide a cost-effective way of reaching out to more students and communities through Sugar.

:In the summer of 2016, I worked as a full-time intern for the same organization. I added automated AWS S3 Backups to their in-house deployment tool, [https://frappe.io/blog/development/deployment-for-everyone. Central].

:*I mentioned my experience with an open-source organization called [https://github.com/frappe ERPNext] above.
:This included writing Ansible playbooks and Python that would set up automated backups for all their production servers for their enterprise clients. This was NOT an open source contribution but I’m mentioning this here because it is a major reason for my familiarity with Linux and Deployment.

:Some presentations depicting my work at ERPNext can be viewed [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B70J3r6c_RnCdUp5MmNPQWlmV00?usp=sharing here].

:In the summer of 2017, I was at [https://angel.co/cube-consumer-services-1 Cube] as a  Full-Stack Development Intern. Over the summer, I built a Python based (bottle.py) web application that automated a lot of maintenance tasks for the Operations team that included web scraping and API Development. I also containerized the application using Docker and Docker-Compose.
