Shraddha works in California, USA, for Cisco as a Greengineer and Machinegineer (fun titles she created herself). She currently creates and demos Internet of Things (IoT) technology solutions for customers across all industries at Cisco. Shraddha joined the company as a hardware engineer in the Accessibility Team, where she tested products to ensure they met global accessibility requirements and standards. During her time in the team, she grew more passionate about accessibility and spearheaded the acquisition of a $100,000 Cisco Research gift for National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID), as well as bringing on Cisco's first two interns who were deaf. She went on to build Cisco's Energy Star Compliance Lab from the ground up and qualified the first set of products for the company.

Shraddha is a huge enthusiast of being your authentic self, combining her love for engineering, STEAM, hands–on projects, and wacky ideas to inspire and empower anyone and everyone, and in doing so, enabling them to realize their true potential. She graduated from University of California, San Diego, CA, USA, with a bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering and depth in Machine Intelligence.
