2019 Goals

Here are some things I'd like to accomplish by the end of 2019.

Here are some things I’d like to accomplish by the end of 2019. A lot of these are already planned but some are stretch goals! Let’s see what happens - but I’ll remind myself in Todoist to look at this post come December 8th, 2019.

• Become a senior software engineer - Start a podcast (#TechQueens) - Read 30+ books - Talk about technology or my career at 15+ events (conferences/Meetups/podcasts/etc.) - Travel to Hawaii and another place I’ve never been (preferably outside the US) - Write 5+ articles that get published outside of my personal website (Medium publication, external blog, etc.)

These are more long-term or broad goals.

• Be loved and love others 😊 - Give a TED talk - Write a book - Become a leader at a tech company (VP Eng, Chief Architect, CTO, CEO, etc.) - Be on the radio - Donate or raise $10K for charity - Be involved in the production of a movie I’d actually watch and enjoy - Record a song - Live in Peru for 6+ months - Have the ability to retire earlier but then decide not to because I’d probably get bored - Be known as an industry wide expert in something - Attend a masquerade ball - Own a doggo - Try out being a teacher - Lead by example and influence a generation of minority women to break into and succeed in tech
