The Nepalese native went on to earn a degree in biochemistry before learning of the Military Accessions Vital to National Interest (MAVNI) program, which recruits immigrants with needed language skills to join the military. The opportunity spoke to her. She wanted to prove to herself that she was strong enough to do anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Four years in as a U.S. Army medic, Chetana made another bold decision: She would leave the Army to continue her education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, she saw a flyer for <a href=\"https:\/\/military.microsoft.com\/programs\/mssa\/\">Microsoft Software &amp; Systems Academy (MSSA)<\/a>, which changed her fundamental thinking about the future. \u201cI realized coding is like learning math,\u201d Chetana says. \u201cThis is a digital era. Everyone should have some knowledge of how to code.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She joined MSSA and trained in cloud application development at Fort Benning, GA. It changed her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After 18 weeks of intensive training, Chetana secured a job offer from Microsoft and readied for her new career. \u201cMy transition process was a thousand times better than what I expected it to be. It was clear I\u2019d gotten the right training, the right support,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last month, Chetana celebrated her anniversary at Microsoft, and she couldn\u2019t be happier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn the Army, when I woke up in the morning in that uniform, I had that sense of pride,\u201d she recalls. \u201cThat part hasn\u2019t changed, and I\u2019m grateful about that. I know that I\u2019m going to work in a very inclusive environment. I love my team, everyone has each other\u2019s back, and I\u2019m doing the kind of work that is impacting a lot of people\u2019s lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check out the
