BIO
Breaking the glass ceiling to become
a subject matter expert (SME) in your field
Read the heartfelt testimonials from people who have personally witnessed the incredible impact of our workshops and guidance.
Diane Wajay,
I.T. Professional at USAA
“ Although I graduated from a top University,
I was never able to work in the subject I majored in.
As a new mother at the time, I was looking for a career that allowed me to still be present for my children.
After attending the workshop, I was able to identify the strengths and skills I possessed and needed to acquire, for a successful career in I.T.
The workshops were so beneficial to me that after
a few interviews, I later landed a remote job that
increased my income from low 5 figures to
6 figures!
I now get to spend more time with
my family and still make money.”
Miles Henderson,
CEO True Culture University
“ I first met Linda as an intern at the African Union Mission to the United States. She quickly became a youth leader at The Mission, gaining the role of Chair for the Tech sector of the Pan-African Diaspora Youth Association (PADYA).
Linda continues to show her leadership skills and dedication
to Africa with her various initiatives focused on
showcasing African history and developing
opportunities for African women in STEM."
Vivian Anyola
Project manager
“ [...] I did many odd jobs that helped pay the bills. [...] After attending the workshops, I was able to land a short term internship, and was later hired as a full time employee.
Not only do I now have consistent income
coming-in to help myself and my family, but I
also have the privilege to be mentored by
my employer on this new journey.”
More than a workshop,
it's an experience.

Afro Girl's TECH
a life-shifting community
Crafted by an unyielding black visionary determined to embrace her true self, Afro Girl's TECH stands as a testament to authenticity and empowerment. We rise not just to reclaim our identity but to soar in the realm of success. With TECH representing both our commitment to be a Technical Empowerment & Coaching Hub and a nod to the founder Linda Foinding's own tech journey, this is more than a community – it's a statement of strength. Our heartbeat is the creation of a safe haven, a dynamic network where black women elevate one another, where collective wisdom, collaboration, and mentorship foster growth.
I believe high self-esteem and discipline can transform the lives of the African Diaspora youth, because it transforms their mindset to strive for success and not settle for mediocrity.
