The feature showcases her journey as a Pakistani woman navigating the tech industry, highlighting both the challenges she faced and her resilience in overcoming them. Roshaan shares her career journey, actively combatting gender bias by seeking mentorship and community support, connecting with professionals who recognized her potential, and engaging in initiatives aimed at addressing gender inequality and fostering inclusive environments. Her efforts transformed personal challenges into broader opportunities for advocacy while also advancing her career.
“Be the change, never put others down, and become your own hero. Embrace resilience, focus on your goals, and lift others as you rise,” Roshaan advises.
