Once, in 2022, I had the opportunity to speak at a major Angular conference, ng-conf. I was nervous but excited, as this was a huge opportunity to share my knowledge and expertise with the Angular community.
As the day of the conference approached, I spent hours preparing my presentation and practicing delivery. I wanted to ensure that I could convey ideas clearly and provide valuable insights to the audience.
I was so nervous on the day of the conference, but before getting to the stage, I told myself that I would do my best, no matter what happened. I took a deep breath and began my presentation, explaining the state management features of Angular and how they could be used to build powerful and efficient web applications.
As I presented on stage, I could see my team sitting in the front row, smiling and giving me encouraging nods. I felt a surge of confidence knowing that they were there to support me.
During my presentation, I could see my team nodding along, clearly impressed by my knowledge and expertise. I felt grateful to have such a supportive team behind me.
After my presentation, my team came up to me and congratulated me on a job well done. They praised my hard work and dedication, and I felt proud to be part of such a supportive and talented team.
Overall, having my team there to support me made the experience of speaking at the conference even more special and memorable. I am grateful for their support and encouragement, and I know that I couldn’t have done it without them!
The audience listened intently, nodding along as I spoke. I even had some jokes that made people laugh. I could see that they were interested in what I had to say, and I felt a sense of pride and accomplishment as I finished my presentation.
After the conference, I received many positive comments and feedback from attendees impressed by my knowledge and expertise.
The best feedback I got was from other women who were inspired to see a mother of 5 children on the biggest stage of her life giving a presentation on a very technical subject. They told me, “we know that it’s possible now; if you did it, then any woman can.”
I felt grateful for the opportunity to speak at the conference and inspire women, and I was already looking forward to the next one.
As a woman in the tech industry, I am well aware of the challenges and obstacles that many women face when pursuing careers in technology and programming. That’s why I hope to inspire more women to become programmers through my work and my involvement in the Angular community.
I believe that the tech industry would benefit greatly from having more diversity and inclusion, and I believe that women have a lot to offer in terms of their skills and perspectives.
I want to show other women that it is possible to succeed in the tech industry, and that they can overcome any obstacles and challenges that they may face along the way.
My mission is to help create a more diverse and inclusive tech industry by having more women who code.
