Episode description

Joining Nadia on this episode of the ground-breaking Women of FinTech Podcast is Joann Egunjobi, Data Engineer at Currencycloud.

When the Pandemic hit, Joann lost her job in marketing and prompted a professional pivot. After taking a Data Engineering bootcamp, Joann entered the world of technology. She took that often difficult first step towards making a change.

Joann has witnessed first-hand the positive benefits of mentorship and career support. Having received a promotion within her first year at Currencycloud, Joann shares how important it is to embrace people with unconventional backgrounds, and give them a chance to flourish in a new environment.

And the pair talk gender diversity in technology. Inclusion includes everyone. And making a positive, representative change demands your input. So how does Joann suggest you get involved?
