+
+Hello world! I’m Sakshi Patle, a final-year Computer Science and Engineering
+student at Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya (RGPV) in the heart of
+India. My journey into the tech universe has been fueled by a blend of
+curiosity, the pursuit of honesty, and an unwavering commitment to perseverance.
+These are the pillars that not only uphold my personal values but also form the
+foundation of my professional aspirations.
+
+## The Spark of Curiosity
+
+From a young age, I was mesmerized by the boundless potential that technology
+promised. It was a combination of curiosity and the allure of creating something
+out of nothing that led me to dive headfirst into the world of open source.
+Within the past year, I’ve had the chance to contribute to diverse projects,
+where I learned that every line of code could be a small step towards making a
+significant impact.
+
+## The Pursuit of Honesty
+
+Honesty, for me, translates into transparency and openness, especially in the
+realm of software development. It’s about admitting what we don’t know, seeking
+help when needed, and being candid about our capabilities. It’s honesty that has
+allowed me to embrace my past as an Outreachy applicant with all its lessons,
+and it’s honesty that drives me to share my learnings and experiences with the
+community.
+
+## The Power of Perseverance
+
+Challenges are an inevitable part of life, more so in a field as dynamic as
+technology. During my academic tenure, I grappled with concepts, whether it was
+establishing CI/CD pipelines or developing Golang projects like a banking app
+with REST APIs, and gRPC services for my college portal. These challenges tested
+my resolve but also reinforced my belief in perseverance. It's the commitment to
+keep going, to learn and to improve, that ultimately transforms setbacks into
+successes.
+
+## The Motivation Behind Outreachy
+
+Outreachy for me was not just a program; it represented the intersection of my
+core values with an opportunity for growth. My motivation to apply stemmed from
+a drive to tap into a global network of like-minded individuals and mentors
+across the OpenTelemetry community and the broader open source ecosystem.
+
+My previous application to Outreachy was a learning curve, a process through
+which I discovered areas for improvement and gained insight into the
+collaborative nature of open source projects. What attracted me to reapply were
+the very tenets of Outreachy—diversity, inclusiveness, and empowerment.
+
+Outreachy offers a nurturing ground to enhance skill sets, build confidence, and
+foster community engagement, which aligns perfectly with my aspiration to be a
+valuable contributor to the OTel community while embodying my core values.
+
+## Why OpenTelemetry?
+
+OpenTelemetry (OTel) stood out to me as a space where security and scalability
+are not just focused on but are thriving. As an intern with the
+[SIG Security](https://github.com/open-telemetry/sig-security) team, I’ll be
+championing the implementation of organization-wide repository governance
+policies and checks. This isn’t just about enforcing standards; it’s about
+creating an ecosystem that ensures the integrity and reliability of the tools
+countless developers rely on.
+
+In this role, I foresee myself learning and contributing in equal measure.
+Drawing from both my technical background in system design and my experiences in
+open source decentralization, I am poised to dive deep into the intricacies of
+secure coding practices and cutting-edge software supply chain strategies.
