What makes her awesome
I am a computer engineering graduate student at New York University with a strong software development background. I have worked at several tech companies and gained software engineering experience working on various projects and using different programming languages. I enjoy staying up-to-date on the latest tech trends, contributing to open-source projects in my free time, and being part of a team that is making a difference in the tech industry.
The moment she knew a career in tech was for her
There were quite a few factors that helped me decide to pursue a career in tech. Ultimately, the tech industry is growing, and there is a high demand for skilled professionals creating opportunities for advancement. Tech professionals often have the chance to work on exciting and challenging projects that require creative thinking and problem-solving skills. Tech companies often work on innovative projects that have the potential to make a positive impact on society. The tech industry is constantly evolving, so there is always something new to learn and discover. It’s an excellent opportunity as I enjoy learning and personal growth.
What the RTC community means to her
I am interested in supporting diversity and inclusion in the tech industry, so I joined the RTC community. The organization’s focus on increasing representation and success for underrepresented groups benefits women in the tech industry. The community has supported me in connecting with other members at my university and conferences, such as Grace Hopper. I could even secure summer internships and grow my network through these connections.
What impact do you want to make?
I want to use data science and machine learning for predicting outcomes, identifying patterns, optimizing processes, enhancing overall decision-making, and improving products and services.
