How did Google Developers Group bring a change in my life?

So at last I get to introduce myself. Hey Developers ! I am Sasi Teja a member of Google Developer Group Vizag( Andhra Pradesh ,India). I am a Data Science and a Machine Learning enthusiast who loves to speak and as you can see I write too.I have been a Member of GDG Vizag since September 2018 and that was the time when I first attended “Google Devfest” the biggest developer conference of Google.I’ll rather call it “The Biggest festival of Google” in my city .My life has changed in the terms of technology since then because GDG has always helped me to connect with professionals from all backgrounds and the meetups conducted by them are interesting,knowledgeable and fun . This Developer community (GDG) has always triggered me to learn,grow and share what I know and that is what I am doing exactly in my college now. I am part of Developer Student Clubs in my college and we as a team conduct seminars,meet ups, hands on workshops and mentor students to build things that can change the lives of people and bring smiles on their faces.

I dream to build for people and see them happy. If you have the same dream Google Developer Groups is the place where you can start.
