I will make my very first appearance at a conference as a speaker on May 23rd,
2025, at [Helvetic Ruby] in Geneva, Switzerland.

Helvetic Ruby is co-organised by our thoughtbot alumni [Dimiter Petrov] since
2023, and I am very excited to be part of this event. There are still
[tickets available], and I would love to meet you there!

I will be giving a talk about modelling the cosmos in Ruby, and how I used
Domain-Driven Design to build [Astronoby], a Ruby gem that helps you calculate
astronomical data and events in pure Ruby.

Don't hesitate to reach out to me, I would love to chat about programming,
astronomy, funk music, great food, and anything else that comes to mind.
