Why did you join sktime's mentorship program?

I wanted to join sktime's mentorship program for mainly below 2 points-

  • Learn best practices for contributing to open-source projects, including writing clean, maintainable code, and testing.

What are your learning goals?

  1. I want to get well versed in Deep learning, Time Series concepts and Sktime architecture.
  2. I want to improve myself as an Open Source Contributor.

What's next for you after the mentorship program?

After the mentorship program, I will continue with my Open Source Contributions in Sktime and other open source projects.
