Brief Bio
"I’m Laila Mohammad Shawky, a computer science and AI student dedicated to harnessing technology for global change. As the first in my family to complete Thanaweya Amma, transitioning from high school to university was a significant challenge. I had to navigate new environments and expectations independently, which taught me resilience and adaptability. Alongside my academic journey, I’ve taken part in several programs and projects, such as developing websites, apps, and participating in initiatives that promote sustainability and innovation. My dedication to using technology for good is reflected in my efforts to merge AI with sustainability goals. I’ve had the privilege of working on projects that align with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in climate action. This passion continues to drive my work, and I’m committed to creating impactful solutions that contribute to a more sustainable future."
