What impact has EDA had on you?
Emerging Digital Academy has quite simply helped me find my purpose in life.
What has been the biggest lesson you have learned?
I learned that determination is key to success and happiness in life.
What is your favorite memory from EDA?
I can’t pick out one specific memory, but I would say the collection of fun times we had as a group. Whether it was working on a tough problem together, or just joking around in class or after hours.
If you were to give advice to someone considering applying to EDA, what would you say?
Don’t be intimidated by some of the challenges you will face. Just break the challenges up into manageable chunks and slowly chip away at them. Also, don’t be afraid to ask questions!
What advice do you have for the next cohort?
Take the time to really get to know your cohort-mates and instructors. The content you learn at EDA is great, but the relationships you make along the way are even more valuable.
