🚀 Thrilled to kick off my SECOND year as an IBM Z Student Ambassador!

💡 During my first year in the program, I worked passionately to spread the power of mainframe technology: hosting workshops, watch parties, promoting hashtag#IBM Z Xplore, and inspiring fellow students to get involved. It was an incredible journey filled with learning, networking, and true leadership.
🌍 This global program led by IBM Z Student Ambassador Program and Your Big Year®, is all about empowering students who are passionate about technology, leadership, and enterprise computing. Through it, I earned IBM Z digital badges, gained access to exclusive technical training, connected with inspiring mentors, and even launched a mainframe-focused community on my campus.
🔐 As a computer engineering student, I’ve seen firsthand how IBM Z powers the world every day, from ATM transactions to airline bookings and online shopping. My first year confirmed there’s a whole universe of possibilities in mission critical computing.
👨‍💻 Now, stepping into my second year, I’m ready to lead new initiatives: running semesterly workshops, amplifying the program online, engaging more students in IBM Z Xplore, and continuing to grow our campus mainframe community.
🙌 Huge thanks to IBM, IBM Z Student Ambassador Program and Your Big Year® for believing in me and giving me the chance to keep being a voice for IBM Z among my peers. Here’s to another year of innovation, impact, and tech for good!
