An engineer and teacher focusing on teaching and delivering AI topics. As she is often the only woman in tech labs, she is passionate in encouraging women all over the world to embrace technology!
1. What do you consider the main achievements in your life?
One of my greatest achievements isn’t a title or award, it’s the quiet, persistent journey of becoming a woman who dared to lead in spaces where she once felt invisible. I was often the only girl in university lab sessions, surrounded by boys who doubted my place. I remember sitting alone in workshops, pretending not to notice the looks that said, “She won’t last.” But I stayed. I learned. I excelled. Today, I stand before classrooms and conference halls, not just teaching code, but teaching courage. Helping students (especially girls) believe that they belong in tech, in leadership, in every room they enter, is the achievement I carry closest to my heart.
2. What drives you to be at the Top of your Game? What are your success strategies?
What drives me is a fire lit long ago, the desire to rewrite the narrative for every girl who’s ever been told, “This isn’t for you.” I push forward for the students watching me, for the child I once was, trying to find someone who looked like her in a computer lab. My strategy is deeply human: stay curious, stay brave, stay kind. I absorb every challenge as a lesson and every doubt as fuel. I don’t just want to succeed; I want my success to open doors for others to walk through.
3. Have you dealt with failure? If so, how did you overcome it and resurge when all the chips were down?
Failure and I have met many times. I’ve had moments where I poured my heart into a project only to see it fall apart. I’ve faced silence in rooms where I spoke with all the courage I had. And I’ve cried, quietly, behind doors no one saw. But every time, I stood back up. Not because I had to; but because something inside me whispered, “You were not made to give up.” I turned those broken moments into stepping stones, because every fall taught me to rise stronger, softer, and more certain of my purpose.
4. How easy was it for you to speak up and share your story when times were tough?
It wasn’t easy. In fact, for a long time, I thought being strong meant being silent. I carried pain like a secret, not knowing it was a story waiting to be told. But one day, I looked into my students’ eyes and realized, they need more than a teacher. They need someone real. So I started speaking. At first, my voice trembled. Now, it echoes with truth. Every time I share my story, I heal a little more and help others do the same. Once I embraced my voice, I found strength in it not just for myself, but for those who needed to hear it. Today, I speak not because I have all the answers, but because I know someone might be waiting to hear they’re not alone.
5. What did you have to do in order to be able to share your story to inspire others?
I had to sit with my scars and learn to see them not as shame, but as proof that I survived. I had to let go of perfection and embrace my humanity. I stopped hiding behind achievements and started showing the journey the fear, the doubt, the triumph. I stepped into the light not because I wanted to be seen, but because I wanted others to see themselves in me. And if my story helps even one person believe in their worth, then every tear, every stumble, every moment of doubt was worth it.
