What qualifications or certifications did you attain in order to reach your professional goals?
I manage both the team in urban headquarters and the masses in rural areas. I managed thousands of rural beneficiaries by giving lectures and making them aware of the world of technology and how to use e-commerce to trade. I was given the opportunity to attend the Mosaic Young Leadership Training, founded by the Prince of Wales in Doha, Qatar, in 2011.
With My Country My Village, we take computers and web access to the lowest income group and empower Bangladesh's poor with possibilities that were never before available. This project offers the real possibility of a Digital Bangladesh, where digital technology reaches the furthest corners of our country and brings change to countless lives.
I gave women entrepreneurs free training from our e-centers; this project received the Award from Power to Women categories in United Nation WSYA 2011.
I was part of the Bangladesh government's 5-year strategic plan for e-services to enhance citizens' quality of life .
My contribution for rural people led to the digital mela held in 2010 in Mongla upazilla.
I have appeared in national media to encourage women entrepreneurs to enter the IT sector.
