It’s starting in a few hours. Check it out below 👇🏽

What an intense 3 days spent with the Newton cohort!! Lots of conversations, incredible learnings, and reconnecting with colleagues turned friends. The sessions on Value Creation by Christian Rangen & Tiffany Bain, and Principles of Influence by Niro Sivanathan were very thought-provoking. Followed by the board room simulation where we saw how influence plays out in real-time in board meetings and its impact on decision-making. Left that exercise with more questions than answers but that's where the learning happens (I hope😄). Look forward to digging into the reading materials further, and excited for Module 3!! #NVPxLBS03

Practical application of what we have studied is the best way of learning Hackathons helps us to improve our skills and makes us realize where we stand in the competition. I got an opportunity to participate in a 24-hour Hackathon organized by Board Infinity.

I just got asked a magical question! Why don't you bring every student from NSBE to the National Convention? I know the answer to this valid question but I would like to give you some context. A few days ago, one of the organizations I lead on campus, the UMass Dartmouth chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers, hosted an elevator pitch event. It was a mini-tournament, inspired by the 3Minute Thesis competition, where participants had to present themselves, and their skills, with a time constraint. We saw finalists Mardochee Dominique, Edwin Blemur, and Natalia Abreu display excellent communication skills, on top of applying changes to their pitch after having received feedback from our judges in the first round. When it came down to announcing the winner, which would be awarded a waived registration fee for #NSBEGOLD, judges were faced with a tie. One of them, Robert Fisher, then asked out loud "Why can't all 3 of them win the prize ?". I was left in shock, but I knew the answer to that question. Ultimately we can't bring every member to the convention because there isn't enough funding to do so. I have been part of NSBE for 3 years now and attended 2 Conventions, after each one I have witnessed graduating seniors from UMass Dartmouth, land full-time offers, and internships, or learn valuable lessons through the inspiring air that fills the room where black excellence lives. I also ask myself why more of us can't get this opportunity. We want to bring inspiration to others who can't make it. It should only take one great opportunity for there to be a consistent pipeline of our students working at top companies all over the world. UMass Dartmouth NSBE past members are already working at Boeing, Bechtel, Turner Construction, Qualcomm, Thermo Fisher, and Oracle to only name a few. This year, we aim to bring 40 outstanding Black students from UMass Dartmouth to the #NSBEGOLD Convention in Chicago, celebrating 50 years of #NSBE. However, with our current funds, we can only afford to bring 2-3 students, excluding the executive board. YOU can help make this vision a reality by donating to our crowdfunding platform or simply sharing it. Special thanks to our advisor Peggy Dias, MBA, past NSBE President Gaspard Baye, and my amazing executive board for their support throughout this process.

Thrilled to share that I've been awarded a certificate for being active throughout the Panel Discussion-Ace Hackathon champions.Organised on 5 April by Hack2skill.....

We’ve facilitated hackathons with agency partners across the country and the day always starts with the same question. What is a hackathon?! Inspired by the tech-style hackathons, the hackathons hosted by SWIM are fast-paced work sessions where organizations brainstorm prototypes that help them implement a variety of Neighbor Centered practices. The day is full of brainstorming, learning, and connecting with one another. Check out the learnings from the day in our Hackathon Report. https://buff.ly/3vNgCUu

Hi connections ☄ , ▶ Hackathon Update I have finally completed my hackathon project and presented my final presentation as well, and please find the attached certificate

2024 2nd hackathon at Simply Wall St just finished! 🚀 Again, another impressive amount of ideas and fixes have been demoed today. Some of them made it to production already. Those that touch user experience will be enabled from next week. Some of these ideas will be discussed internally moving forward to whether they are aligned with current strategy and they get dedicated time and resources. But no hack is wasted. All hacks bring a different angle to solving our user problems, fixing existing internal processes and implementing improvements for our Developer Experience. And the most important part: seeing how everyone in the team is proactively contributing to build a better product for our users. Before every hackathon, we challenge ourselves about whether having 3 hackathons per year is too much (and we dedicate 3 days to each of those!). After hackathon demos, I have to say: worth every minute. Stay tuned as we will be sharing the hackathons as they land in the following weeks.
