I graduated with a degree in Computer Engineering, unsure of what lay ahead. During her time in college, she struggled with confidence and public speaking, often avoiding leadership roles. However, a final-year project pushed her to step up and present in front of industry experts.
That moment changed everything. After graduation, she joined a startup, where she quickly grew into a leadership role. Today, she is a senior product manager at a global tech company, leading teams across continents.
Riya often credits her alma mater for teaching her resilience and encouraging her to step outside her comfort zone. She now returns as a guest speaker, inspiring students to embrace challenges.
