Kamaria DeRamus is a software engineer at The College Board, a non-profit organization that connects students to college success. If you’ve ever heard of or taken the ACT, then you are acquainted with The College Board. In her job, Kamaria works on the website students use to submit requests for special accommodations during the test like extra time, a scribe or human reader, extended breaks or even a snack. While this is intriguing and important work, Kamaria’s path to her current position has been equally interesting. After graduating from Gadsden City, she attended Wellesley College in Massachusetts, where she double majored in media arts and sciences and Africana studies. Kamaria’s career aspiration is to become a computer architect making the decisions regarding how applications are built.
If you know a successful Gadsden City alumnus who is thriving somewhere around the world, we would love to include them in the Our Titan Family is Going Places campaign.

Make sure the video is between :30 and 2 minutes. The photo should be of just them with a background that reflects what they are doing in their career. They should be sure to use their name (first and last) as the file name for the photo and the video.
Along with the photo and video, they’ll need to complete the short survey here.
