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
