She was selected among only 2,000 applicants for a full-time data scientist position in the UN. During all these accomplishments, she was always intensely passionate about blockchain, trading, and creating apps for herself to aid in her investment strategy. These self-help trading apps that scrapped and analyzed crypto trends ended up being the foundation of the Defy Trends Company which is now a platform for investors and traders to make confident crypto investments utilizing quality information and actionable insights!As a young entrepreneur empowering women, she has already launched her first company and is in the process of building a strong team to support her goals.
