Sofia’s journey is a powerful testament to the transformative power of a career pivot, proving that a new path can be both inspiring and incredibly fulfilling. Her story began in the world of beauty therapy, a role she loved for the deep connections and confidence it brought to her clients. But after a life-altering accident left her with a permanent injury, she found herself at a crossroads. Her physically demanding job was no longer an option, and the world of tech, particularly Product Management, felt intimidating and out of reach.
However, Sofia’s resilience refused to let her quit. She recognized that her valuable soft skills—deep listening, problem-solving, and a keen eye for detail—were exactly what the tech world needed. It was this realization that led her to Kimolian Academy. Here, she wasn’t just enrolling in a course; she was joining a community that saw her potential and empowered her to embrace a new future.

At Kimolian Academy, Sofia’s learning experience was turbocharged by our use of cutting-edge AI tools. She wasn’t just learning a new discipline; she was mastering the AI-driven technologies that are transforming the industry. This practical, hands-on approach helped her bridge the gap from a non-tech background, boosting her confidence and making her an AI-literate professional ready for the modern workforce.
Today, Sofia is a crucial part of our team, blending her passion for people with her tech knowledge as our Community Engagement Manager. Her journey perfectly embodies our mission to empower women throughout the cohort, giving them the tools and support needed to thrive in the digital age.
