Where They Are Now

"Steady Steps gave me more than an education — it gave me confidence. The encouragement from my teachers and the strong academic foundation I received shaped the way I think, learn, and solve problems today. As a Software Engineer at Google and a proud graduate of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, I still carry the values of discipline, curiosity, and excellence that were planted in me at Steady Steps."
