Finally, much thanks to my family for their constant support 🥺. I will definitely miss my several friends in Barcelona, and amazing colleagues at the AIML group.

7/7

Now, every conference now feels like a familiar meeting, an opportunity to chat with old friends, and make new ones.

6/7

I greatly appreciate my advisor @neu-rips.bsky.social for guiding me into the field of RL theory. In addition to doing satisfactory research, I had the opportunity to build a network of friends at core institutions like AMMI, MILA, Stanford, MIT e.t.c.

5/7

I strongly hope that my completing the PhD would encourage more funding for African women in STEM via DMF and in general.

4/7

I thank @upf.edu, @enginyeria-upf.bsky.social, Dorcas Muthoni, sponsors of the Dorcas Muthoni Fellowship (DMF) for the opportunity to pursue an international doctorate without the burden of course fees, living and travel expenses.

3/7

Though I put in a ton of effort to get here, I am again reminded that it does take a community to raise a child. For this reason I am filled with gratitude to God and everyone who has accompanied me on this journey.

2/7

I defended my thesis last Monday, and a journey of 4 years came to an end!
