My Journey as a Women Engineer Scholar: A Tale of Growth and Learning
As a Women Engineer Scholar, my journey has been a remarkable blend of learning, growth, and exploration. Being selected among the top 1% of 22,000 applicants in the Women Engineers Program by TalentSprint, supported by Google, was a turning point that allowed me to sharpen my technical and corporate skills. This program has not only empowered me with knowledge but also instilled confidence to excel in the tech industry.
Discovering My Passion for Technology
From the beginning, I had a natural inclination toward problem-solving and exploring the world of technology. This passion drove me to take on multiple projects, including building a Fetal Health Classification System and a Text Summarizer using Google Cloud and Vertex AI. These experiences enhanced my practical knowledge and deepened my understanding of real-world applications.
Upskilling and Thriving
The rigorous curriculum and mentorship offered through the Women Engineers Program allowed me to develop proficiency in various technologies. Through hands-on training and exposure to advanced tools, I gained expertise in Frontend Web Development, Python, and AI/ML technologies. These skills empowered me to successfully develop and deploy projects that showcase my technical acumen.
Leadership and Collaboration
My participation in the Aspire Leaders Program, initiated by Harvard Business School professors, enriched my leadership abilities and broadened my perspectives. The collaborative environment, where I interacted with like-minded peers and mentors, taught me the value of teamwork and perseverance.
Open Source and Innovation
Fueled by a zeal for open-source contributions, I took part in projects like AquaShrimp, where I contributed to building a responsive header for a prawn farming website. Additionally, I aspire to become an active contributor in programs like the GirlScript Summer of Code to further hone my open-source skills.
Overcoming Challenges with Resilience
Coming from a humble background where my father is a daily wage worker and my mother is a homemaker, I’ve witnessed firsthand the importance of determination and resilience. These experiences have shaped me into someone who thrives under challenges and remains committed to achieving her goals.
A Future Full of Possibilities
As I continue my journey in the tech world, I aim to contribute to society by using technology to solve real-world problems. Whether it’s through innovative projects or contributing to open source, I’m driven by a desire to make a lasting impact.
My journey as a Women Engineer Scholar has not just been about learning but about transforming challenges into opportunities. I’m excited to continue this journey, growing with every step and contributing to a better technological future.
