Gia Mar Ramos, ProjectCSGirls Semifinalist 2017

Congratulations to 8th grader, Gia Mar Ramos, who is a semifinalist in the 2017 ProjectCSGirls competition. ProjectCSGIRLS is a national initiative which encourages girls in technology and computer science through a hands-on competition that challenges middle school girls to come up with novel solutions to imminent social problems. Participants can build, code, or prototype their projects and must address one of three themes: global health, security, or intelligent technology. They are then required to submit a technical report of their project components and results, as well as a video describing why their product is innovative and useful. Make sure to watch the video of her app.
