Hey there!

I am a female Product Manager in the telecom industry. Study habits that I developed early have proved to be invaluable. At the beginning of a school year or course, take the time to determine when key assignments are going to be due, if you know this in advance. Look at a calendar and see if you have overlap between assignments for different courses that could cause you to run into time constraints. It is good to identify this early so that you can plan for it and complete each assignment to the best of your ability.

Hey there!

Welcome to your STEM journey. As you continue on your path, it's important to take time for yourself and to clear your mind. Learning and studying can take such a toll on our mental health.

My name is Alexa and I studied Computer Science in college! Now a few years later, I manage an awesome team of people at a technology company. I remember how often in my college days I was one of a few women in my coding classes, and often the only woman of color. It sometimes made me feel like I was in the wrong place! I often felt like I had to work even harder than my classmates to prove I should be there. Looking back, I am so happy that I lived through that discomfort because I love my job, I love my life, and I love how fun programming is!

For school, it will help you grasp important concepts and do well on assessments and in your professional life it will help you decide on the field and place that you may want to find employment. Once you are out of school, homework does not end. It is important that you learn how to study and do it often.
