It takes creativity to be a software engineer, it takes problem solving, it takes tenacity, communication skills… so having a really diverse team is incredibly beneficial.

Stephanie (she/her), C11

Winter 2020

I’ve got lots of technical chops now…I never thought that someone like me who has a background that’s not in technology could feel so accepted. It has absolutely changed my life.

Without everyone kind of rooting for you throughout I don’t think I would have been able to transition into a field that’s really hard to break into.

I have a large pool of people that I can rely on and seek help from and also help mentor …making sure we continue the process of showing up and being seen.
