Why Virtual TSM?

What motivates you to join TSM?

I think the opportunities offered by this TSM are invaluable! I'm very excited to be working with the amazing organisations and brainstorming with my group members! I think this will add to my skillset. I'm certain I'd have an exponential professional and personal growth after this course!! Also, due to COVID-19, I'm not sure If I'd be able to afford a real life Study Mission! So I'm really hoping to get in here!!

Where would you like to visit virtually?

My top 3 preferences would be: USA, Japan, South Korea. These countries have economic stability and have done wonders with technology! I'd like to know more and gain experience!

Starting a business

What types of business interest you?

Too many to count! But at the moment, I'm very intrigued by the use of Artificial Intelligence and its application in businesses. I'm fascinated by Data Science and Data Analytics. I also thinking that Soft robotics would be ground-breaking for science and medical sector!

What plan do you have in starting a business?

My only plan right now is to gain sufficient experience and insights about the actual workings of a business! Learning is what I plan to do!

Past Experiences

Internship

I have been actively involved with a few NGOs and other start-up organizations to facilitate better outreach. Recently I have been working as the technical writer with "The Girl Code Co". I'm looking for part-time jobs and other internships at the moment.
