Women in Spotlight: Avani

Hi, My name is Avani. I am a rising 11th grader and I live in South Brunswick, New Jersey. I am a swimmer and play the clarinet in school band.

Some projects I have completed during Girls Who Code!

Capstone Project

Cinderella MadLibs!

Which character of "The Office" are you? Personality quiz!

During this course, I learned I like paired programming as it is nice to have another mind to help uncover a solution to our code. This taught me teamwork and helped make my codes better as we shared ideas and found the best solutions.

In the future, I hope to implement coding in my work style even if it is not the major I focus on. I learned comp sci plays a big role in many companies so I would like to continue learning about it.

Advice I can give to a women about computer science is that if you love it and you are not horrible at it, there should be nothing stopping you from pursuing your dream and learn about what you would like to learn.
