Recognition
Recognition and achievements from my journey...
Emerging ICT Professional of the Year - Finalist
Digital Disruptors Awards 2022 - Australian Computer Society
It is an honour to be nominated for the Emerging ICT professional of the year award, and more honourable still to be an individual who migrated to Australia as an international student five years ago and making it this far. Feels amazing to know that the ACS recognises and supports the work I’ve been doing at work and outside of work - Best confidence booster ever!
.
These awards act as a critical platform to celebrate the evolution and growth within the IT industry, and I would like to acknowledge the other award nominees and winners yesterday evening, and their achievements and contributions. Huge shoutout to the ACS (Australian Computer Society)!
