What impact will your mentorship have on your career and professional path?

Through TechWomen, I look to reinforce my technical and entrepreneurship skills and gain new insight into areas where I lack full expertise. I will be in a better position to lead women in a more productive way. Moreover, availing this opportunity will be best suited to further my skills on cultivating an international perspective, building collaborations based on women empowerment, networking with individuals, especially IT entrepreneurs, and see beyond cultural barriers. Lastly, I will meet inspiring people who will support me in my pursuit of a PhD.

What will be your most valuable contribution to your TechWomen host company?

I will contribute technical and research skills to my host company. My dedication and enthusiasm will help me complete project milestones in a timely manner. I am a quick learner and am self-driven. As a good team player, I will share insights about the startup culture in my region.

After participating in the TechWomen program, how will you leverage your mentorship experience to make an impact in your home country?

This program will enable me to obtain the latest IT development and entrepreneur skills. Upon completion of this prestigious program, I will continue to apply learned skills to my work at my Home institution. I have worked with two public sector universities for the five years as a lecturer in Information Technology and a mentor in the first Business Incubation Center in Baluchistan city run by our university (BUITEMS). Through this program, I will be better equipped with knowledge of IT business startup in the Business Incubation Centre at home university.
