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

As I graduated recently with a Ph.D in Mathematical Modeling, this mentorship will help me to enlighten my career and also to set my new perspectives. It will help determine what I will be doing in the next few years.

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

Being a part time teacher gave me this huge sense of responsibility towards the younger generations, especially young girls. Therefore, my becoming a TechWomen will give me the opportunity to be a better guide and a good example for them. I will give time to tell them about my experience, to support them to achieve what they are dreaming about. I will also transfer the ideas and skills I developed during my mentorship in order to serve my country and its scientific community.
