From Computer Novice to Computer Science Student at WITU
Before joining the Makerspace training at Women in Technology Uganda (WITU), I had a curiosity about computers but didn’t even know about many of the exciting fields that existed! Today, thanks to WITU, I’ve been introduced to areas like computer essentials, graphic design, and artificial intelligence. Learning about AI has been especially eye-opening I'm now exploring its endless possibilities and even building my own chatbots and GPT models!
The thrill of creating something from scratch and watching it come to life has deepened my passion for technology. I never imagined I would be able to build intelligent tools that can solve problems or interact with people. Now, I’m excited to explore AI further and see how I can use it to develop innovative solutions that can make a real difference in my community.
This training has given me the skills and confidence to pursue my dreams.
