Presence and gentle collaboration

My passion for mathematics naturally led me to IT as a career choice. To explore this path further, I opted for a technical college where I developed a love for programming. It's a path I've never left since. The professional world has offered me the opportunity to diversify into several roles, reflecting the richness of the IT sector. I have a bachelor's degree in engineering and another in IT, in addition to completing a master's degree in information engineering. After the enriching experience of managing a product team, I took the plunge into entrepreneurship. Finally, to pursue my dream of exploring the world, I made the decision to move to Canada. What I find fascinating about computer science is its constant movement, full of occasions to satisfy curiosity. With rapidly evolving technologies and changing ways of working, we always can improve.  FORTES has given me the chance to meet amazing women and promote a more inclusive work environment over the course of my career. Through my involvement with the internship pillar, I get to meet women at the beginning of their IT careers, each with their own inspiring story. It gives me great pleasure to be able to help them pursue their dreams.
