Being inspired by Next Tech Girls and through my own journey in tech, I’ve encouraged other girls to see themselves in this field—proving that passion and persistence matter more than stereotypes

A big well done to Fatimah in S5 Birnam and Jane in S5 @TeamCawdor for speaking at the P7 open evening this evening! @harrisacdundee

At a school transition event with over 600 students and parents, I gave a speech about my journey in tech, aiming to inspire young people—especially girls—to pursue their passions despite stereotypes. As a Cluster Ambassador at my High School, I shared how I started coding games, the opportunities I’ve had like work experience at the London Stock Exchange, and how these experiences shaped my confidence and skills. After my talk, parents asked how their children could get involved, which motivated me to connect Next Tech Girls with my school and support others on their tech journey.
