Beau Taplin once said "she was unstoppable. Not because she did not have failures or doubts, but because she continued on despite them."
WHAT DO YOU DO?
I wear multiple hats. As a Google Developer Expert for Assistant, I develop Actions on Google and help other people to learn about building for the Google Assistant. As a Google Developer Group & Women Techmakers (WTM) London lead, I organize technology events around various Google technologies. As a Google Launchpad mentor, I mentor startups to help them with their product and marketing strategies. As a Google Product Expert & Trusted Tester, I help people to learn how to use Google products in the most efficient way. As the UK STEM Ambassador, I teach kids how to code at Code Club and CoderDojo.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS FIELD?
Albert Einstein once said, "I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious." I consider myself curious! I love experiencing new things, asking questions, meeting new people, traveling to new places, and working on lots of exciting projects.
WHAT DO YOU LOOK AT & THINK, "I WISH YOUNGER ME WOULD HAVE KNOWN THIS WAS POSSIBLE?"
A bioorganic chemist turned quantum chemist turned community manager & digital marketer at Google turned women in tech advocate & UK STEM Ambassador turned international speaker & Google Assistant developer, I never thought any of it would be possible.
As a conference-speaking code-writing world-travelling breastfeeding mom, I’m excited to share my passion for technology and inspire people. As for formal achievements, I was very humbled and honoured to be named as one of the NEXT 100 Top Influencers of the European Digital Industry.
WHY DO YOU LOVE WORKING IN STEM?
I wake up every day with one thought: Is what I'm doing making a positive impact on the world? I keep that in mind and try to incorporate it in everything I do. My true passions are solving problems and helping others.
BEST ADVICE FOR NEXT GENERATION?
Believe in yourself, set goals and crush them.
INSPO / FUN FACT
My ultimate role model is my mom who helped me become an independent and confident person that I have grown into. I'm so grateful for her endless support and encouragement. She taught me to always persist and never give up!
