    Kenya Herring

    IT Specialist A+, Google IT Support, AWS Cloud Practitioner, AWS Solutions Architect - Associate

Additionally, the lack of minority characters playing the more techie-driven character inspired her to be the diversity that she wanted to see within the industry.

She pursued her degree with partial funding through scholarships with her largest amount coming from the popular database management company, Oracle.
