Gloria Fonseca Alvarez developed a refined cross-match tutorial notebook for the lsst/tutorial-notebooks repository, focusing on Gaia data access via TAP services. She consolidated and clarified the tutorial steps, improved metadata management, and enhanced documentation to streamline onboarding and ensure reproducibility for users working with astronomical datasets. Using Python and Jupyter Notebooks, Gloria applied targeted code refactors, including renaming steps and cleaning outputs, to align with review feedback and maintain workflow hygiene through pre-commit checks. Her work addressed both technical and user-facing aspects, resulting in a more accessible, maintainable, and accurate resource for data analysis in astronomy education.
