Participating in ICSE 2023 was an exhilarating journey. A journey that stimulated my intellectual growth and acted as a catalyst for my next steps.

ICSE 2023 was a hub of knowledge. Each conversation, presentation and talk expanded my understanding of Software Engineering and pushed the boundaries of my own perspectives.
Yet, it wasn’t just that!

At ICSE, I found myself surrounded by mentors and role models. Every fellow researcher had an inspiring story to tell and a wealth of wisdom to share.

As a final-year Ph.D. candidate, this was exactly what I needed – a sense of purpose and determination to continously make meaningful contributions to the field of Software Engineering and, most importantly, to inspire other women in Computing!

I am deeply grateful to the ACM association, Google and my supervisor, Prof. Ying Zou, for their support that enabled me to proudly become an ACM-W Scholar.
