Valerie 's Story I used to watch my brother do IT in school growing up and knew it was what I wanted to do when I go grow up. I enjoy the complexity of it all and knowing that everyday will be a different challenge. I had the opportunity of doing IT in school so I have basic knowledge on coding.

🙋‍♀️ Valerie 's Motivation

I want to grow in the tech field and provide my parents and family with a better life. I want to make a difference and break boundaries in a male dominated field and prove that women should be allowed the same opportunities

🤹‍♀️ Valerie 's Hobbies

I enjoy the outdoors, hiking or walks at the beach with my dogs. I have a passion for cooking arts and gastronomy and if I’m not outdoors you’ll find me home with my nose buried in a good book
