My name is Kyrah M., and I’m a Computer Science major at Howard University, passionate about breaking barriers and inspiring change in tech. As the first African American female president of my high school’s technology club, I was proud to set a new standard for inclusivity and representation in STEM, paving the way for others like me to feel empowered in this field.
Outside of academics, I express my creativity in the kitchen, blending my love for cooking with my heritage to create unique recipes. My personality shines in all aspects of my life, from my leadership roles to my love for the color pink, which represents both my boldness and my feminine strength.
I’m deeply committed to supporting young women, especially women of color, as they find their own paths in technology. I believe that representation matters, and through my own journey, I hope to encourage others to see themselves as leaders and innovators. My goal is to help break down barriers, showing that when we dare to step forward and lead, we make room for others to do the same.
