Suhani Singhal is a Junior at UC Berkeley Studying EECS and Business in the M.E.T. Program. As a life-long Girl Scout, she is passionate about giving back to community and working on problems that solve real-world issues. For example, Suhani co-founded the app Pomona, an android app which connects restaurants with users to sell leftover meals at reduced prices for the competition Technovation. After the competition was over, she went on to become a mentor, student ambassador, and an intern for the organization. She has also been practicing taekwondo for over 8 years and has earned her second-degree black belt. On campus, Suhani is part of many organizations like Machine Learning at Berkeley, HKN EECS Honor Society, Codeology, Regents & Chancellor's program, and M.E.T. This past summer she worked at Salesforce as a Software Engineer intern and previously worked as a Machine Learning intern at ArrowDx, a Boston based startup. During her free time, she finds herself watching sci-fi movies, building projects, and hanging out with friends.

In high school, Suhani became interested in Computer Science and technology, but she was very surprised when she found that she was only one of a few girls in her CS classes. Living in the bay area, she expected to see a lot more female representation in her classes, and she couldn’t begin to imagine what issues and problems girls were facing across the country let alone around the world. As a result, she decided to dedicate her Girl Scout Gold Award project to combat this issue and created her project 1000 bits of hope. Although the project started off as her gold award, she strives to continue this project and further develop the platform she has created.
