I am going to talk about my career path: struggles, highs and lows and most especially on how I changed roles from starting off as a nurse, to being a tattoo artist, a writer in a Japanese IT company, then slowly making my way into the WordPress field: as a WordPress plugin support, and finally as a Happiness Engineer at Automattic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With this talk, I hope to not only to empower women in Asia, but also give inspiration to the whole community and to those considering making a career at WordPress. I am going open to everyone and give clarity to those who are already in the field who may be feeling confused, or having an “impostor syndrome”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is an inspiring success story that it’s possible to make a total transformation in terms of career, personal and professional growth. And how to grow in WordPress and the WordPress community in our own unique way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
