Hello everyone! The past couple of months have been exciting for me, both at work and in my personal life. In this post, I want to share some important highlights from June and July. I had some thrilling projects at work and made sweet memories with my loved ones. Stay tuned for more details!

Work:

In June, I had the opportunity to work on two projects. First up was the GitLens Project, which meant a great deal to me. you can verify your open source contributions and get a verified checkmark on your lens profile. get access to exclusive job openings and much more.

The second project, Masspulse, was a cool tool that helped people on YouTube. It analyzed comments and gave them tips to make better videos. Over 360 users loved it, and that made me feel awesome!

July -

Internal Hackathon - we had an internal Hackathon where in everyone from our team had to build something. i built this cool tool called ReclaimID. just like ENS, you can claim your .reclaim ID and link all of your social credentials. planning to build the V2 and make it more functional.

Staring new Project

One of the most exciting things was starting the new Creators Studio project. I had to juggle multiple roles – Product Manager, Designer, and Developer – and boy, it is challenging! But you know what? It felt so good to step out of my comfort zone and do something unusual.

Professional Milestone:

Guess what? I have completed three whole years in the industry! It feels like it was just yesterday when I started this journey. I've worked in different fields – Event Management, Sales, non-tech Support, UI design, and now mostly as a Software Engineer. It has been one heck of a journey!!

Caution - I'm about to share some of my secrets, which I have never shared outside till date :) - yeah, I look different though.

Initial 2 years. Struggling days.

2021, I had my first job in tech as a UI Designer and learning to code in my free time. Man, those sleepless nights were worth it.

2022 - Finally as an SDE.

Life:

Amidst all the work stuff, life also had its share of ups and downs. I finally met my close friend after long time, and we cleared up some misunderstandings. It felt so good to have that heart-to-heart talk.

We had a funny celebration for my colleague's birthday. We made a banner with a hilarious political theme, and it cracked us up! she is always been our inspiration, and it was a fun way to show our appreciation.

So, looking back, I feel so grateful for all the things i have now and lessons they brought into my life.

Life is full of surprises, and I'm excited to see what's next. I'll keep approaching each day with smile, embracing challenges, and cherishing the special moments.

Thanks for joining me on this ride, and I hope my little story can inspire you too. Until next time, take care, and keep smiling!

Happy Coding!! Keep Shipping 🚀👩🏻‍💻
