Maram's Advanced Maker Journal

This journal is to share my thoughts and reflect on my learning journey throughout the Advanced Maker Diploma.



About Me

I am a Computer Engineering senior student at Cairo University. I joined the Maker Diploma a few years back in 2019. It was a great experience that I've always felt like I wanted to go through again so here I am at the Advanced Maker Diploma in 2022.

A few things about me is that I enjoy making stuff and learning new things. I've always had a passion for art and crafts. I spent most of my time as a child doing paper crafts. scrapbooks, embroidery, paintings, drawings and all sorts of stuff like that. I still occasionally do try something new every now and then. Like just last year, I decided to try string art for the first time during the Maker Faire and it was really fun. Regrettably though, I am a bit of a perfectionist and I like to do every little detail to perfection which might sound great at first but then it isn't really always the best approach to everything so I am currently working on overcoming that. That is all. I guess that's enough about me.

Oh and one more thing, I am a firm believer that by helping others, we are making this world a better place and I really hope that one day I could leave a positive impact on others.
