I remember it clearly, me in a whole room of men.
As I learnt all things crypto and blockchain, Iโm not going to lieโฆ.
It was often uncomfortable and intimidating.
This happened many times over the years.
I was at one of the biggest events of the year, The Blockchain roadshow. When I met the founder of Blockchain Collective @Nathan Burns who offered me an opportunity to work with their team.
Yep, little meโฆDanielle!
They had just launched the first Advanced Diploma of Applied Blockchain and I decided to go ALL IN!
I didnโt have a technical background or a fancy degree. I was just passionate.
Passionate to change my current situation and take advantage of a new emerging spaceโฆ. More on more stories later in the week.
I decided I was going to build a career in Blockchain and I have never looked back.
- I am the first international student to complete the Diploma and Advanced diploma of Applied Blockchain.
- And the first female to become a fully qualified trainer and assessor in Australia to deliver Applied Blockchain courses.
Last year I founded โAll things Blockchainโ A nonprofit association for decentralized finance with over 1300 members in 12months.
Iโm on a mission to bring more women into this space, so none of us need to feel alone, silly or scared to learn what is our future!
If you are a woman and wish you got started in crypto ages ago but felt too intimidated?
Iโm starting a group on FB where we can all hang out and learn about the exciting opportunities in the Crypto and Blockchain ecosystem together.
Are you coming to join us lovely ladies?
