Or how a career in criminal justice could pivot to becoming a Cloud Solutions Architect? Meet Destini Williams, our guest for this episode, who has made such transitions. They take us on a journey from their early careers at Wells Fargo and in criminal justice to their current roles in technology. We also discuss the different cloud solutions available at Microsoft, the role of programs like Level Up in Tech for budding techies, and touch upon our favorite underrated TV shows. Navigating the tech industry and starting from scratch can be challenging, especially without a tech-focused background. Destini share their trials and triumphs, and we talk about the importance of research, seeking help, and the role companies can play in assisting newcomers. Destini speaks about her unique use of social media platforms for career growth and how she landed an internship through LinkedIn. We also cover pertinent topics like cybersecurity, identity management, and the role of Aura, our sponsor for this episode. Finally, we emphasized the importance of communication and awareness in dealing with online scams. With the rise of online criminals targeting vulnerable populations, we discuss strategies to outsmart them and the role of scammer payback. Plus, learn from Destini how to navigate workplace resistance, transition roles, and negotiate compensation during a career transition. All this, peppered with a fun conversation on our favorite TV shows that sadly lasted for just a season.
