My name is Dawa Dhondup. I was born and raised in a Tibetan settlement in Mundgod, Karnataka. I have had a strong passion for and on technologies ever since I was a child. Therefore, I have always dreamt and envisioned myself working in the Information Technology departments of well-established tech and software companies. To pursue my dream, I studied Computer Science for three years from Delhi University after completing my higher secondary school. I realised that the more I study Computer Science, the more immersed and passionate I became. Soon after my graduation, I enrolled in a three-month training program on Full Stack User (UX Design) offered at Designers Institute in Bangalore with the help and guidance of ENVISION.
The Training Programme helped me grab the tools and technical methods to assess and understand the experiences of customers or apps users on mobile devices. The training was quite intensive as we had to complete a project each week including developing apps of different kinds, portfolios and resumes. I completed the course in October.
I would like to thank Empowering the Vision(ENVISION) for guiding me and for financing the training programme. I encourage others to grab opportunities such as the Fellowship Programme of ENVISION to build their employability skills.
