Everyday AI Dataiku Conference with Venezolanas in Tech NGO

Member/Ambassador/Mentee

In December 2022, I had the pleasure of attending the Everyday AI Dataiku conference in Miami, FL, and gained valuable insights. 

Here are a few key takeaways:

I learned how Dataiku helps to systematize data processes through talks and networking sessions. I connected with Dataiku's multinational partners and national customers such as Raken Data Group and Perdue Farms, and was able to actively engage in workshops and projects using their Data Science Studio (DSS) platform.

Additionally, I discovered that Dataiku offers learning paths to certifications. Through tutorials, I not only learned about data transformations, flows, joining datasets, dashboards, visualizations, recipes, and schemas, but I also had the opportunity to practice consistently and quiz myself along the way. In fact, I recently received my first certification as a Core Designer from Dataiku.

I thoroughly enjoyed networking with professionals working at companies from the Dataiku partners ecosystem, such as Snowflake and phData. It was a great opportunity to learn from their expertise, share experiences, and even exchange recommendations for some of the best food places in Miami.

2022 SHPE National Convention 

Professional Member

In November 2022, I had the opportunity to attend the SHPE National Convention in Charlotte, NC. I gained a deeper understanding of SHPE at the national level and witnessed the commitment of professionals and industries to help, connect, and recruit the next generation of scientists and engineers. 

Meeting and connecting with SHPEtinas, women Latinas who have suceeded and were open and vulnerable in sharing their experiences, was one of the highlights of the convention.  

Overall, the convention was a revelatory moment that allowed me to showcase my enthusiasm, energy, and passion for the field of science and engineering. The opportunity to practice and apply skills on the spot was a valuable experience that required quick thinking and adaptability. Through my interactions with peers and professionals, I was able to demonstrate my strong communication, networking, and interpersonal skills. I am grateful for the opportunity and look forward to continuing to build on the skills and qualities that I developed at the convention.

Skills applied:

Kaplan International Languages 

Learning English in Chicago - International Student 

In 2014, I had the opportunity to immerse myself in the American culture and learn a new language for six months through Kaplan International school. It was an eye-opening experience where I connected with students from over 50 countries, supporting and empowering each other's growth while having fun in the artistic city of Chicago. 

During that time, I learned to be adaptable, open-minded, and self-motivated, as I embraced a new culture and language. I also honed my communication skills by connecting with people from diverse backgrounds and demonstrated empathy towards others. It was an incredible experience that taught me the value of creativity and the importance of learning from others.

Skills acquired:

Bouldering and Rock Climbing 

In February 2023, I retook this personal activity. I highly enjoy the adrenaline rush and the encouragement space while learning how to synchronize mind and body entertainingly. The best part? Friends supporting each other and celebrating the small wins!
