I am Zainab Abdul Qayoom, a Computer Science student at Mehran University of Engineering and Technology in Hyderabad, Pakistan. I am currently in my second year with a CGPA of 3.76 and have been involved in technology and community work since before I started university. I completed Harvard CS50x and CS50 AI with Python, Microsoft Azure AZ-900, and have earned over 68 certifications from Google, IBM, Databricks, and Anthropic. I have worked as a software engineering intern at CodeAlpha, built AI projects including a deployed Notes Summarizer using Groq and Llama3, and co-founded a digital creative agency called Unscripted Studio. Beyond technical work I hosted an IEEE Smart Cities event before professors and PhD scholars as a first year student, serve as ambassador for PEF-MUET and Women Wheel'z, and share tech knowledge with over 8000 followers on LinkedIn. I want to become an ICSC Ambassador because I genuinely believe students in Pakistan need more exposure to international competitions. Many capable students simply do not know these opportunities exist. I plan to change that by organizing workshops, mentoring students directly, and building a CS community in Hyderabad that keeps growing beyond my own time here.
