Well, I am a girl who is fond of coding, developing applications, finding out some innovative ideas that may help the nation directly or indirectly.
I have been playing with computers since I was in class 2. I really enjoy coding, working on the Internet Of Things, and learning about new technologies and discovering technical things that make our life easier. And yeah, these things drive me.
I have recently worked on a project on Virtualized Network Functions, a computer network related project. This was my minor project in the final project. For the major project, I am currently working on an IoT device which could be of use for visually impaired people.
Besides, I have participated in Codeutsava 1.0 and Codeutsava 2.0 hackathons. I have also participated in Smart India Hackathon 2018, where my team stood 4th and won the Persistent Award in the ministry.
The best thing I learned was from one of my interviewers. He told me that thinking about and fulfilling people's needs with technology is an awesome job but one should never stop contributing to the innovations in technology. After all, our future growth relies on competitiveness and innovation, skills and productivity and these, in turn, rely on our education.
I should be selected for this hackathon because I have that mindset through which I could contribute to the nation with my innovative ideas towards technological advancements.
