Top SchoolCarolina García is a technologist and artist with 13 years of experience blending full-stack web development, project coordination, and social impact initiatives across Europe and West Africa. She founded Niit Tekna Logik to empower women through free technologies and now coordinates IDÉES, an arts-driven campaign addressing e-waste’s environmental and health impacts in Senegal. Hands-on across front-end frameworks (AngularJS, Vue) and Ruby on Rails back-ends, she has contributed practical fixes and security improvements to notable open-source projects like Diaspora. Her work uniquely combines technical consultancy for NGOs, digital literacy training, and cultural programming to create collaborative ecosystems between public and private organizations.

This mix of engineering, arts practice, and grassroots project management makes her adept at turning technical solutions into socially resonant programs.
