In Episode 3 of The Badass Coder Podcast series, we sat down with Nishat Anjum, a computer science graduate from CUNY’s Brooklyn College. Previously, she was also a former software engineering intern at Twitter. For many women in tech imposter syndrome and a lack of role models for someone who looks like them has become very common nowadays. Many women of color will often face cultural barriers and believe that sometimes only someone who understands their normal can truly help to turn things around and Nishat is doing so as a muslim woman in tech. This badass takes us on her college journey and tell us more about how she overcame these challenges by building her own community!
