#124 Edidiong Asikpo put herself out there

Edidiong first told us about her bumpy start, how computer science was only her "third option". She explained how an internship changed her view on tech and how she embraced it. We spoke about communities and open-source. We talked about her dislike for reading and writing. Edidiong explained how she purposefully started writing more, and how that led to her first and second jobs. We finally touched on mentorship and connections.Here are the links from the show:https://www.twitter.com/Didicodeshttps://edidiongasikpo.comhttps://hashnode.comhttps://www.interswitchgroup.comhttps://www.shecodeafrica.orghttps://www.oscafrica.orghttps://www.facebook.com/groups/DevCUyo#EndSARSNigeria is currently living through difficult times.
