About Me

Equality means providing the same to all. Black women are disproportionally represented in the Tech Sector. With the rise of AI Robotic automation and post covid-19 black women were already disadvantage and onset to experiencing early mental issues. According to the World Economic Forum Report The future of work, there will be 192 million jobs by 2030. If we are not digitally equipped, then we will be left behind.

Having to deal with the lack of Early investments, educational attainment, earning, pay, wealth, housing and mental health gaps black women are discriminated in every aspect of society. I’m leading on the Global #BeMedigitalinclusion program with key stakeholders to re address the gender and digital skills gap.

This is done twofold. Supporting the #BeMedigitalinclusion - Mentoring - Visits: DE&I - Work experience - Training - Network Tech events DE&I developing policies around what this looks like and get our #BeMedigitalinclusion women involve at the planning design. This is a game changer.

Social mobility helped them out of poverty, they all studied and were able to secure good jobs. Their low socio- economic status changed overnight.

Seeing this as a child, I was able to use this same approach when I had my child. I knew education was the only way out at the time.

I wanted to be my child’s role model! Although I could feel the system challenges from working, I did not realise how bad it was until I attended the Wintrade Week 2019. As I sat and listened to Alison Rose speaking about the lack of women in leadership roles – I started to ask questions about Black and Brown women representation. After winning the Global Wintrade Award category: Women in Engineering, I realised that black women in Tech sector was literally non-existent. I could not breathe. It was that moment I decided that I would be ruthless with the #BeMedigitialnclusion of raising one million black women and girls’ aspiration in STEM | Web 3 related careers.

When I look through the intersectional lens of my personal lived journey I see: My blackness, my disability; gender, race and being a mother – the days I would have to rush back to collect my child from the nanny or afterschool club, late night studies and the challenge of understanding the text because of my learning difficulty.

My learning difficultly was my way of pushing harder and doing my best. Trust me I failed so many times, that I cannot even begin to tell you the amount of time I got up. Now I’m here.
