My name is Deshyah Anderson, and I am a sophomore at the University of Cincinnati with the credits of a junior. I am pursuing my bachelor’s degreee in Information Technology💻 with a focus on Software Development. I am proud to have graduated from Hughes STEM High School👩🏽‍🎓, where I was part of the IT Pathway and the Early UC IT Program, allowing me to start college with my first year complete. My academic dedication is reflected in my 3.71 GPA and my spot on the Dean's List for the fall, spring, and summer semesters📚. My ultimate goal is to become a software engineer, leveraging technology to create solutions that promote fairness and make a tangible impact. My mission is to use my position to inspire and mentor more young Black people to join the IT industry and prove that our backgrounds don’t define our futures.👩🏽‍💻
