She wanted to reach space. She just didn’t expect technology to be the route. 🚀

Mehak Zainab’s journey took a few unexpected turns, from an early fascination with aerospace to finding her place in Computer Science.

A rejection changed her direction. Curiosity kept her moving.

"I always thought my future was in aerospace. Then a rejection made me question that path—and led me to discover that Computer Science could actually take me closer to the space industry.

My journey started with a summer computer course, where curiosity turned into a love for learning. Today, I’m studying Computer Science at FAST, earning a place on the Dean’s List, and gaining professional experience through a software engineering internship.

For me, the biggest change wasn’t choosing a different field. It was realizing that a different path can still lead you toward the dream you started with." ~MEHAK zainab- Software Engineering Intern - TPL Insurance

A whole new cohort with new perspectives. A whole world waiting to be designed. 🎨

Cohort 17 is in the middle of its UI/UX journey, learning to turn ideas into thoughtful digital experiences under the guidance of Mashood un Nabi- UI/UX Designer at Genetech Solutions.

From understanding users and mapping their journeys to wireframing, visual design, Figma, prototyping, and testing — they’re not just learning design principles; they’re putting them into practice.

And the best part? Every screen they create carries a little bit of their own imagination. ✨

Some journeys are not just about learning a skill; they change the way you see yourself.

For her, stepping into tech came with challenges she never expected. But somewhere between starting over, finding support, and learning to navigate unfamiliar ground, she discovered a stronger version of herself.

Today, she’s building her own venture, contributing professionally, and creating space for others along the way.

"Starting out after a difficult life phase, I felt overwhelmed. Coding seemed incredibly complex, and I feared getting left behind while others moved ahead. Enrolling in CodeGirls was an impulsive decision, but it turned out to be the best choice I ever made,it gave me a clear direction when I needed it most.

Today, I proudly run my own company and work with a brand. I went from doubting my self-worth to leading others with confidence, independence, and pride." ~Abeer Fatima - Managing Director at FST SURGICAL
