Hi! I'm Pazia, I'm a software engineer specializing in mobile applications & I'd love to share my passion & knowledge of computer science with you.
I received my bachelors degree in computer science from Brown University, where I graduated magna cum laude in 2020. After graduating, I spent 4 years working as a software engineer at Google, working on a variety of projects including Google Docs, Sheets, & Slides on iOS.
During my time at Google, I also conducted SWE interviews, mentored software engineering apprentices on my team, helped CS students prepare for coding interviews and volunteered at student events and workshops.
I am passionate about sharing my knowledge & experience & helping other folks in their own coding journeys. In particular, it's really important to me to help folks who hold marginalized identities, i.e. women, non-binary folks, LGTBQ+ & BIPOC folks, feel better entering the world of tech.
As a multiracial female/non-binary SWE, I know how intimidating the tech industry can be especially when you don't see people around that look like you and I want to help you feel more confident in this space :)
Looking forward to meeting & working with you!
