The Art of Rebellion & Innovation: What every African Techpreneur Needs To Know by Viola Llewellyn

The Art of Rebellion & Innovation: What every African Techpreneur Needs To Know by Viola Llewellyn

Bukky's session with Viola was amazing not only did she shed so much light on the challenges of females in technology especially the underrepresented group, she also highlighted the opportunities in Africa.

When Viola was asked what drives her, she gave a powerful statement  "the idea that someone can tell me what I can or can't do drives the reason why I am not interested in being ordinary". She is definitely not ordinary, taking on payment processing in Africa when no one thought it was possible is not a small feat. Listen and learn from one of the very top  African Techpreneur changing the narratives and creating innovative solutions to disrupt the status quo.

Opal! The "Tinder for Mentorship" launches in 2021

Mariah Manzano is the CEO & Co-Founder of Opal, whose mission is to empower students through mentorship at any point in their career-search journey. She is also currently a Software Engineer at Cisco, former NASA Ames intern, and former Santa Clara University UX Project Manager and Career Center employee. She’s a class of 2020 graduate from Santa Clara University with a degree in Web Design & Engineering and emphasis on Entrepreneurship.

She is particularly passionate about empowering underrepresented groups to pursue their dream careers because as a woman of color in tech, she recognizes the power of seeing someone you can identify with in a role you see yourself in. Or even in a role you never thought you could pursue. She believes that the realm of possibility exponentiates with even the slightest bit of encouragement and empowerment.

She is the CEO and co-founder of Opal! The "Tinder for Mentorship" mobile app that connects college students with mentors. She is a strong believer in trying new things, a growth mindset, befriending imposter syndrome, and leveraging art to connect with your most human self.
