Interview with Dona Sarkar at the Windows Insider Create-A-Thon in Berlin

I was invited by two friends to the Windows Insider create-a-thon two weeks ago in Berlin.

It was hosted at the Microsoft Atrium which is an event space located on the boulevard leading up to the Brandenburg Gate. It was at the event where I had the chance to talk to and interview Dona Sarkar who is the new leader of the Insider Program. Apart from her role within Microsoft she is also a fashion designer and a novelist.

As I’m still not certain about my future I want to find out what motivated other people to get to where they currently are and what their future might look like. Since I believe that everyone has a story to tell I thought I would start with someone who has already achieved so much already and someone who wants to change the world for the better.

I’m still learning about how to effectively and efficiently interview people and would also like to excuse the choppy audio at certain parts in the interview which are due to background noise / clarity reasons.

I certainly learned a lot about her work and projects and what might be necessary skillsets for a meaningful personal future.
