Had the opportunity to speak on the Pathways into Tech panel last week at the Diversitech’s Juneteenth event. I talked a bit about my journey into tech after completing the AWS re/Start Bootcamp and had the chance to connect with people who are either just getting started or looking to move into new areas of tech. Great experience all around. Thank you to Per Scholas, AWS, Tribaja, and everyone else who helped make the event happen. #PerScholas #Tribaja #AWS | 12 comments on LinkedIn

We enjoyed meeting 🐯Princeton University🐯 undergrad and grad students at the Undercover Boss and Spring Networking Fair last week 📚🎓. We were blown away by the passion and talent of students who braved the chilly 20-degree weather to chat with us. You all rock! 🌟 Shoutout to the fantastic team at the Center for Career Development for hosting us again. Krystyn, Seeta, Kyle Nicole, and Maddyson (Maddy), you run a tight ship and make magic happen. We look forward to the next event! #AmazonxPrinceton
