Like many of you, She faced obstacles—confusing concepts, failed attempts, and moments of self-doubt. But she kept going by using the right resources like Trailhead and superbadges to build both confidence and skills. She will talk about what worked for her, how she stayed consistent, and how she finally landed her first role. Her goal is to give you honest tips that can help you prepare for certifications and grow in your own journey. If she can do it, so can you!
