What brought you to a career in technology at the United Nations?

The need on the ground to actively involve the most vulnerable populations, particularly young women and girls in socioeconomic marginalised areas, in urban development processes for a more sustainable local environment

What has been your favorite technology project or initiative at the United Nations and why? What was your contribution?

https://hercity.unhabitat.org Leading the team that developed the toolbox and supported its implementation in cities

What advice would you give women interested in pursuing a field in technology?

Technology is the new language, make sure you are part of that journey from the beginning. Even if you doubt your skills, think that you are doing this for all girls and women everywhere. One step at the time, you are actually supporting the advancement of women's inclusion. If YOU don't dare, there will be one woman less around the table.
