I joined Sister Nation with two goals; to take a dip in Machine Learning and to challenge myself with being uncomfortable in my current professional state. I finished my coursework and was given a platform to learn more. I also expanded my professional network, gained a supportive mentor who pushed me to pursue creative outlets to improve my personal brand. It has been phenomenal to say the least.

Sister Nation was more than a training program to me, it was an abode where I found myself while understanding who I was and what I wanted to do. It was the structured guidance I needed to get my career on the right path. Aside from a great boost in confidence, the life changing experiences I have gained from this program, I now understand what it truly means to empower others. This has given me the drive to make a positive impact wherever I find myself in the world

I've been a part of many communities throughout my career, but Sister Nation is truly special. The level of support and encouragement that I've received from this community is unparalleled. Whether I'm looking for career advice, networking opportunities, or just someone to talk to, there's always someone within the Sister Nation community who's willing to lend a helping hand. I'm proud to be a part of this movement and I'm excited to see what the future holds for Black girls in STEM

“As a first-generation student, I had no one to ​help guide my next career steps. Through ​Candoor, I connected with accomplished female ​Advisors. Once I got an interview, I spoke with an ​Advisor from that same company who helped ​me understand what to expect and how to pitch ​myself. As a result, I got a job offer at Deloitte!”

Through this program, I was able to upscale my finance and accounting skills, and also take professional courses like the Finance Modeling and

Valuation Analyst Program organized by the Corporate Finance Institute at no cost. One of the best experiences of being a fellow was that I never walked alone and outside the program I am

still in touch with most of the sisters I met. Black Sis is indeed my home from home.

I joined Sister Nation through the Women in Machine learning conference Ghana. Sister Nation provided a platform for me to network with professional women in AI, data science and Machine learning in African.

Through one of those networks, I got my first international job. I learned about building and running machine learning models in Google cloud platform during the conference held in Ghana.
