Natalia Dias da Costa

3rd-year Information Systems Student: Natalia is a Brazilian student from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and is a member of the Brazil Scientific Mobility Study Abroad Program. She is seeking a degree in Information Systems focusing on web programing and is currently studying Computer Science at New York Institute of Technology. Natalia always took an interest in the web, and started to learn HTML by herself when she was 13. Later, in high school, she took a technical course where she learned traditional programming languages such as Pascal, Java, and JavaScript. At the same time, Natalia took alternative courses in the web and design field, learning how to use Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash, and Corel Draw. Now, in college, she is learning even more, always studying to learn more programming languages. Back in Brazil, Natalia worked at a school where she helped kids learn about the proper use of the computer. After this experience, she worked at the National Bank of Social and Economic Development, helping with troubleshooting. While Natalia worked at the bank, she also was tutoring for the Programming Techniques II class at her University, assisting students with class-related doubts and helping them understand the given subjects and assignments, as well as assisting the teacher in class. She joined this internship with One Community hoping to gain experience and learn even more about open source and her field of study. She did just that spending the last two months diligently working on the new open source Highest Good Network software.
