Hi everybody, I am Dhiren Navani. I am a graduate student in Computer Science at Arizona State University. I am trying to develop java and apache spark skills. I am interested in learning more about SystemML and would like to contribute. It would be great if there is someone who can mentor me or guide me to resources, since I am comparatively new to the opensource world and industry in general. Also I can assist with some promotional activities as I am a part of lot of meetup groups here in Phoenix, Arizona.
