Quotes
- “If you think this domain is for men, then too bad for you, It’s actually the best time to be a woman in technology.”
- “We’re not just women in technology—we’re people who are making a difference in the world.”
- “I’ve always been passionate about empowering people. I grew up in a place where accessing information was almost impossible, a place that almost everyone has neglected. So I grew up knowing that someone has to make a difference, to go out and get the skills to bring change to the place where I was born.”
- “Information alone isn’t enough. Information needs execution – without that you’re not changing anyone’s life.”
- “It’s so exciting, the little effort you put into technology, and how it can change people’s lives. The beauty of it is that you can do whatever you have to do anywhere and anytime. As a technologist, you can come up with something that touches a lot of people’s lives.”
- ““We might not be able to solve all the problems the farmers have […] but what we have been able to do is provide a holistic solution from the time of planting to the time of selling and taking it to the market, one text at a time, one farmer at a time.””
