[community] tor-community-team Digest, Vol 54, Issue 2

Wed Mar 31 15:34:10 UTC 2021

Hi everyone!

My name is Shreya. I'm a graphic designer from Indore, India. I've been
learning UX and some front-end development on my own and now I'm looking
for an internship to get real-world knowledge. When I found out Tor is
offering an internship, I was really excited because I personally love Tor
browser and support its cause.

I've looked at the project details on the Outreachy website and I'm still
trying to get used to the IRC environment. I've noticed that all the
first-contribution labeled issues are taken. I've already requested to be
assigned a community issue. If you have any other contribution
recommendations for me please let me know.

Thanks and regards,
Shreya Badchariya
