Thriving With ADHD: My Journey to Become a Polyglot Programmer and a Successful Developer Advocate

Navigating tech as a neurodivergent presents unique challenges, but it can also be a powerful catalyst for creativity and innovation. Join me for an inspiring session where I share my personal journey of thriving with ADHD and social anxiety, mastering multiple programming languages, and carving out a successful career as a developer advocate.

I got diagnosed late as an adult but I realized that I already turned my perceived obstacle into a source of strength and creativity. I used my perceived disadvantages to learn multiple programming languages, to author a book, and to become an international speaker and developer advocate.

Whether you have ADHD or simply want to hear an inspiring story, this session will provide you with valuable insights and actionable advice. Discover how to harness your unique strengths, embrace the diversity of the programming world, and thrive in your tech career.
