Spent 3 days at Quaid i Azam University Islamabad for DEV WEEKEND, organized by the AWS Student Builder Group.

What was covered:

Tech career journeys in data, led by Taskeen Fatima (DataCamp)

Git and GitHub fundamentals, led by Shiza Asghar

Agentic AI with Kiro and Amazon Bedrock, led by [@wardaliaqat01](https://dev.to/wardaliaqat01)

The Bedrock session stood out since Warda has been mentoring me directly. Watching the concepts she explained get applied live in a workshop format made a lot of things click.

I work as a Junior Network Engineer at FiberX Digital, and I am building [NexaLink](https://zilleali.lovable.app/nexalink), an ISP management SaaS, on the side. Events like this are a good checkpoint while I expand from networking into cloud and AI.
