Erjona’s first paper was accepted by womENcourage event of ACM!

In her own words:

“Well, 2 years ago I was a Sophomore having doubts about my studies in Computer Science. I went to this womENcourage event in Barcelona and met wonderful women with great careers in tech and that was so inspiring. Not only I didn’t quit, but I tried even harder and now I’m at Senior year with my first paper being accepted at the same conference that motivated me 2 years ago! So maybe I will have the chance to encourage other girls that have doubts about a career in tech this year in Rome. I’m so excited and determined to thrive, more than ever!”

Resources ?‍?

Natasha says:

“Amazing short courses, links, and exercises to start learning AI.”

Big Data Explained by Lillian a.k.a. Big Data Gal – shared and created by me 🙂

In this interview, Lillian gives an awesome definition of Big Data, walks us through how companies may use it with a specific example and shares her advice for anyone who is interested in a career in Data Science.


One of my favourite podcasts out there – created by the founders of theSkimm (which I read daily!). New episodes come out once a week and each one is an interview with a highly inspirational woman about their career, business, mistakes, etc. I absolutely love it and highly recommend it!

As always, thank you so much for being so inspiring, ladies! And for submitting all of these wonderful news and resources ?‍?
