“You were born with wings, why prefer to crawl through life?” ― Rumi I was born as an Afghan refugee in Iran during the USSR's invasion of Afghanistan. One year after the fall of Taliban, my family and I moved back to Herat, Afghanistan, where I earned my Bachelor in Computer Science and later my Master's from Technical University of Berlin in Germany. In January 2015 I founded the first coding school for girls in Afghanistan with the mission of empowering women to be financially independent.
