My Internship Goals for the HNGi8 Program

Before October 2020, I never would have imagined a girl like me could write codes. I started learning to code in October last year, and this period has been an exciting phase of my life.

I love learning. I enjoy writing codes as much as I love writing. I am confident that I would be more proficient in software engineering at the end of this program.

If I could go back in time, I would tell my younger self that I could do anything I set my mind to and that anyone could be an engineer.

I would love to get the experience I need to get set in the tech industry; this experience would help me learn more about working in a community of tech-related people.

This program would add a lot to my experience as I push to perfect my skills in software engineering.

My goal for this internship program is to

1. Improve my coding skills.
2. Improve my communication and collaboration skills.
3. To make progress towards my track as a Software Engineer.
4. Gain more experience of working in a community of tech-related people.
5. By the end of 8 weeks, I would have achieved a wider knowledge and be in a better position than I was before I started this program.

Through this internship, I hope to teach young people that it is not impossible to write codes, and all that's needed is to believe in themselves and have the determination and perseverance to push through. I hope to make resources readily available for anyone who has the interest to learn software development.
