After the Trail, I discovered a branch of Hack Club called Days of Service, an initiative to support girls in coding. Thanks to the Hack Club cofounder Christina and the event mananger Zenab, I got to travel to Toronto and help organize an event called Celestial. 

Celestial was an one-day hackathon on October 19th in Toronto at Shopify. We met weekly months before to find venues, design merch, advertise, and find leading women in tech to be mentors. There were two workshops, PCB and 3D modeling. I helped run the PCB workshop. I also designed some of the stickers. 

On the 18th, I flew from Boston to Toronto and met up with the other Celestial organizers! It was so cool to finally see them in person. We also got to attend a dinner with ten women leaders in tech and learned a lot from their experiences! I noticed a common theme of what they said was to not ask for permission and to take risks! Overall, helping organize Celestial and being able to travel to Toronto to meet so many cool people was a wonderful experience. I got to learn so much and meet a ton of amazing people!
