About this listen

In this episode, Vinita and Sam talk to software engineer and SHE codes mentor, Nina Ajnira Karisik, to discuss how to break into the tech industry as a self-starter, dealing with unconscious bias, and how to overcome these barriers to achieve success.

We cover the following themes:

  • Finding her feet in tech as a self-starter
  • How unconscious bias has affected her career
  • The benefits and limitations of AI in programming
  • The co-dependence between design and programming

She looks at code holistically, being equally interested in back-end and front-end development, as well as being very passionate about how said code makes a difference in people's lives.
