Hi, I'm bandali, and I'm a computing scientist and activist for user freedom. I wear a few hats around the GNU Project, and I'm a volunteer member of the FSF SysOps and a participant in several other free software projects and communities.

I first got involved with EmacsConf back in 2015 when I helped organize EmacsConf 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 bandali@gnu.org or bandali@kelar.org, or via IRC by messaging me (bandali) on the Libera.Chat network. You can find me on various free software-related channels there, such as #gnu, #emacs, and #emacsconf.
