Cultivating Success: Empowering Women in Engineering and Technology through Fikrcamp

Hey! 👋 Breaking Barriers and Shaping Futures: An Inspirational Journey of Empowerment in Engineering and Technology

Since I was a child, my fascination with civil engineering burned brightly within me 🔥. However, I faced numerous obstacles that made it challenging to pursue my dream. Societal misconceptions and the lack of female representation in the field discouraged me from following my passion, and instead, my family steered me towards studying accounting 😔.

Upon completing my Diploma in Accounting, my teacher posed a pivotal question: what did I want to study next? It was at that moment that my curiosity in technology was ignited. The teacher enlightened me about the profound impact technology would have on the future, and I instantly knew that a career in this field was my calling 💡.

My journey into the realm of software engineering at university was not without its fair share of obstacles. In my second year, I encountered a significant roadblock that left me feeling helpless and devoid of motivation 😩. Thankfully, a friend introduced me to the transformative power of the Fikrcamp Bootcamp, which completely changed the game for me 🚀.

Participating in the Fikrcamp Bootcamp turned out to be one of the most pivotal decisions of my life 🚀. The skills I acquired during that intensive program revolutionized my perspective and transformed my life ✨. It instilled within me a lifelong thirst for professional programming and fostered a deep understanding of the value of networking, interpersonal skills, effective communication, and essential career development 💡🌟. Moreover, the Bootcamp honed my critical thinking, problem-solving, and logical reasoning abilities, which proved to be invaluable not only throughout my studies but also in my future endeavors 🧠💪. As a testament to my growth, I was honored with the prestigious software engineering award from my university 🏆.

During my time at university, a fortunate opportunity came my way when I secured an internship as a web developer at the Ministry of Employment, Social Affairs, and Families (MESAF) in the Republic of Somaliland 🌍. Throughout this experience, my teacher, Roble, served as an unwavering pillar of support and guidance 🙏. I am truly grateful for his mentorship and dedication to his students. Additionally, I extend my gratitude to Ridwaan and our mentors, particularly Ahmed and Abokor, for their unwavering guidance and support 🙌🤝.

Following my university studies, I embarked on a remarkable journey as a multimedia specialist at Macrobia International University in the United Kingdom. Reflecting on my accomplishments thus far fills me with immense pride. Despite the numerous obstacles I encountered along the way, I remained resolute in never abandoning my dreams. I sincerely hope that my story can serve as an inspiration to others, encouraging them to pursue their passions unyieldingly.

Furthermore, I am thrilled to share a recent update on my journey. Presently, I hold a position as a training specialist for healthcare professionals at the Taiwan Technical Mission (ICDF) ✨. My primary focus is on the field of Healthcare Information Systems (HIS) 🏥. This role allows me to contribute significantly to the advancement of healthcare by training professionals in the effective utilization of these systems. Moreover, I take on the additional responsibilities of a graphic designer and troubleshooter for the organization 🎨💻. The multifaceted nature of my work makes it both challenging and immensely rewarding 😊.

Simultaneously, I have embarked on a fulfilling venture as a full-stack web development freelancer 💼💻. This endeavor enables me to exercise my programming skills and engage in diverse projects across various industries 🌐. As a freelancer, I tackle a wide range of web development tasks, utilizing my expertise to create innovative and functional solutions for clients 💪. This dynamic and ever-evolving field provides me with constant opportunities for growth and learning 📚.

Embracing both roles, as a training specialist and a full-stack web development freelancer, has broadened my professional horizons 🌅. It allows me to make a meaningful impact in the healthcare industry while continuing to explore my passion for technology and web development 💡.

I am truly grateful for the opportunities that have come my way and for the continuous support from my mentors, friends, and family who have cheered me on throughout this remarkable journey 👏🙌. I remain steadfast in my commitment to pursuing my passions and inspiring others to do the same ✨.
