Discovering Open source, working @ Microsoft + learning on the job: Nelly Kiboi - Part 1
In this episode, Nelly Kiboi discusses her experience discovering open source and working at Microsoft, as well as the importance of contributing to open source projects. She also talks about her transition to a new country and building confidence in herself through small steps and finding supportive communities.
Nelly emphasizes that contributing to open source can take many forms, not just source code contributions. One can create lists, share fun projects, and even sponsor other contributors. She believes that open source work can help individuals stand out in job applications and improve their chances of landing a role.
Nelly is committed to empowering the next generation of women in tech, and has created and led coding classes, contributed to groups that educate and encourage young women to build careers in tech. Her impact was acknowledged in 2021 when she received the esteemed FDM everywoman in Technology Software Engineer Award.
