Sara Wedeman
Based in Cambridge, MA and Philadelphia, PA USA
I began my career as as psychologist, because I am fascinated with consciousness as well as the behavior of individuals and groups. Then I bought my first computer - to use in writing my dissertation...and it was a revelation to me. Most people aren't aware that some of the seminal thinkers in the development of the online world were psychologists (J.C.R. Licklider and Don Norman, to name a few) - but for me, it fits. I was a therapist and researcher, when I stumbled on advanced analytics (AKA ML) very early on. Over time, I became very involved in most things technological and just about all things Internet, and here I am!

Md.Kamruzzaman Khan
Based in Dhaka, Bangladesh
As a network engineer with over a decade of experience, I have honed my expertise in numerous networking departments and technologies. Throughout my career, I have excelled in managing complex IP networks, troubleshooting hardware, and working with industry-leading systems. My journey began in a small town in Bangladesh, and in pursuit of knowledge and opportunities, I ventured to Dhaka after 1994 due to my father's job. Life has presented me with various lessons along the way, some of which have been profoundly challenging. I have experienced unimaginable loss, having lost my father, mother, and my first son within a span of just four years. These painful experiences have instilled in me the understanding that life is incredibly unpredictable, and none of us truly know where our paths may lead. I have found solace and inspiration in the written word, and throughout my life, writing and reading have been my most cherished habits. However, due to a significant accident in recent years, I temporarily set aside these passions. But now, with renewed purpose, I am committed to living a vibrant and fulfilling life. Through my experiences, I have come to appreciate the profound beauty of life and the value of embracing it with passion. Armed with a degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the esteemed State University of Bangladesh, I am eager to channel my expertise into project management and IT, helping organizations overcome challenges and achieve their goals. Life has taught me that every moment is precious and that we must seize opportunities to make a positive impact. I am determined to live a life that is not only colorful but also driven by a deep sense of purpose. My hope is to touch hearts, inspire others, and make a meaningful contribution in all that I do.
