Since childhood, I’ve always really liked computers and intended to work with them. In my teenage years, after watching the video Code Stars by Code.org, I discovered that my professional goal was to work at a big tech company. It didn’t matter what I had to do, how, or when, I was determined to turn this dream into reality.
When I entered college, I knew the journey would be tough. Balancing studies, projects, and work was a constant challenge. There were sleepless nights, moments of doubt, and personal sacrifices.
I am grateful to everyone who supported me along the way: my mother, my father, my sister, my brother, my psychologist, my mentors and friends. Without their unconditional support, I would never have made it this far.
It is with immense pleasure that I announce: today I started working as a software engineer at Coinbase. My new goal is to help create an open and fair financial system for everyone in the world.
