Talk title

The Importance of Building and Having a Community Especially while Transitioning into Tech.

Abstract

I want to talk about the importance of people coming together and offering their support to each other. In today’s world there is a lot of individualism and going through a career change can be frightening, as well as through other difficult situations. Although I haven't yet changed my job I want to share what I've learned so far through this journey and how thanks to the support of the community I have I overcome every challenge encountered so far.

Your name (and pronouns)

Stefania Rosca (she/her)

Based in Barcelona and would like to speak in Paris. I do need travel assistance.

👋 @stefi23, thank you for submitting a talk for Paris! I loooove this topic - I also recently changed to tech and it's so encouraging (and important) to hear these perspectives.

I'll add you to the website now 🥖

Pinging @SaraVieira re: travel costs because she'll know more about handling that 😇

This is so exciting! 😊 Thank you, @carolstran 🙌 Transitioning into tech is a scary thing to do but so worth it, right?

stefi23 commented 4 years ago

Hi, @SaraVieira 😊What is the procedure regarding the travel costs? Thanks!

SaraVieira commented 4 years ago

Hey!

Let me talk to the organizer of the Paris community, @pducolin if this is a talk she would like to see to make sure it doesn't crash with any talk

Seeing you are from Barcelona, travel shouldn't be an issue, you will have to stay in a bad hotel probably since Paris is super expensive 😭

stefi23 commented 4 years ago

Thanks, @SaraVieira! No worries! I know Paris is expensive. I'm good with a bad hotel too 😉

pducolin commented 4 years ago

Great topic, looking forward to hear it!

SaraVieira commented 4 years ago

Awesome! Can you tell me your dates so we can get a trip set up?

SaraVieira commented 4 years ago

Is this flight okay? https://kay.ac/8cz-v5

stefi23 commented 4 years ago

This flight is perfect, @SaraVieira! Should I send you some additional info? My full name is Stefania Rosca.

SaraVieira commented 4 years ago

@stefi23 How averted are you to staying in a shared hostel room?

SaraVieira commented 4 years ago

Can you send me all your info to this email: hey@iamsaravieira.com?
