This competition spanned over multiple months. We were mentored by multiple Microsoft specialists. This competition helped me gain a confidence on pitching a idea and expressing it to the audience. It helped me grow to bigger heights and provided me with a boost on speaking and conveying the message to the crowd.
I am very thankful to Microsoft for giving me such a wonderful opportunity helping me develop to a more refined version of myself.
