It’s #throwbacktechthursday! We’re reminiscing the infamous snake (video game). Snake is the common name for a video game concept where the player maneuvers a line which grows in length, with the line itself being a primary obstacle. It was a classic on the Nokia mobile phone and was released in 1998. Today, there are over 300 Snake-like games for iOS. Did you play? Comment below.

Happy #TechTuesday! Today, we are featuring Collett Charlton. She is an Alcorn State University graduate that recently landed her dream software engineer position at Apple Headquarters in California. This position came through her participation in the 2019 Apple and Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) Apple HBCU Scholars Program. This experience allowed her to receive a glimpse into life as a full-time Apple professional.Her exceptional internship experience has transformed her dream into a reality, as she recently accepted a software quality engineer position at the company. Collett will begin her tenure in January, shortly after earning a bachelor’s degree in computer science during Alcorn’s 2019 Fall Commencement.
What stands out for Collett about her excellent career move is that it will allow her to leverage her newfound resources to bring technological advancements and awareness to her home country, Jamaica.
Not having access to modern technology was the story of Collett’s upbringing. Her childhood experiences of not having reliable technology are what inspire her to lead in changing things for the better.
Collett has a big heart, which is why she’s anticipating her role in using technology to aid others in any way she can.
Go, Collett! We’re rooting for you! #womenintech #blackintech #thebeanpath
