About Me
I was born in Ethiopia and moved to the US when I was 3. My background is what motivates me to promote diversity and inclusion by inspiring younger generations. My love for problem-solving, collaborating, and innovating has led me to study CS and Design at Northwestern University’s School of Engineering, where I'll be graduating in June 2023. I find myself most excited when designing products and programming web applications, and I am looking for web development full-time positions in Python, JavaScript, and React.
