A young lady named
Almicia Dunson has announced that she was
officially promoted to SENIOR software engineer at microsoft.

Almicia went further to share few motivating words.

Read her post below as shared on LinkedIn:

I have officially been promoted to SENIOR software engineer at microsoft. Originally I had this long post typed out telling y’all my life story, but I decided that was too much and it could all be summed up in a few bullet points:

  • if there’s something you want to accomplish and you’re willing to work toward it, don’t let anyone discourage you from doing it. if i had listened when people told me to quit, i wouldn’t be where i am today.
  • many will disagree, but practice CAN beat talent. you might not grasp all the concepts you’re learning in your classes right now, but eventually they will click. keep studying.
  • don’t compare yourself to other people. everyone’s path and upbringing is different so most times you’ll be comparing apples to oranges. there’s much better ways to spend your time.
  • i could not have done this alone. i’ve always had support from friends, family, and coworkers and it means more to me than i could ever put into words.

Again, thank you to everyone who has been a part of this journey. I’m looking forward to everything that comes next!

I’m excited to start my new job! #newjob
