What inspired me into digital and tech...

I stumbled upon the computer forensics and after researching realised how interesting but challenging it would be. On joining university I found tech so innvigorating and always bringing new challenges which I love.

My educational background is...

I left school at 18 having completed my GCSE's and A levels, but with no idea of what to do and spent 5 years working in retail, at 23 I decided to go to university (northumbria) and study computer forensics, from here my tech journey started.

What advice I'd give to girls thinking about a career in digital and tech...

Go for it, do not be afraid to take the risk, there will be challenges along the way but you will have a lot of support around you and will learn so much.
