A young woman from Mexico City, who worked with her family running a stall at a street market. Sofía describes this setting as “a place where we follow the rules of the street, similar to the rules of the jungle. A place where words rarely get you anywhere, a place where experiences are unpleasant, a place of violence.
Although Sofía had learned a lot through her work with her family, she knew it was not what she wanted forever. Laboratoria meant the possibility of change.
At Laboratoria, not only did Sofía discover a passion for programming, but she also found the way to change her life, and her family’s life.
Since then, Sofía has thrived in multiple jobs in tech - including working remotely for companies in the US - and today serves as an ambassador for Women in Voice.
