Kwanele's Story A combination of that first computer science course I took as well as just having an analytical lens in how I view the world. My interest was peaked in seeing the endless possibilities through code in that first computer science class I took. Coding is exciting and challenging and I am a person who loves exciting things! I love challenging myself beyond simplicity and I feel as though this course would be just what I need.

🙋‍♀️ Kwanele's Motivation

When I was in my first year of University I took a foundational computer science course for the first time. This course offered HTML and this was super exciting for me. I was able to create my first ever webpage and this was absolutely amazing. I am Keen to dive into coding with SheCodes now and see where this could take me both personally and proffessionally. I would love to combine my competencies as an aspiring Environmental Scientist with coding and hopefully develop cool softwares when able to. I would also love to open a youth hub where I live for children ranging from 10 -16 to teach them the basics of coding and to hopefully inspire them to follow career paths that are associated with coding in some way or another.

🤹‍♀️ Kwanele's Hobbies

My hobbies are mainly baking cakes in the hopes of turning this into a business one day, taking walks and very light jogs as I tend to run out of breath, watching sunsets in the summer and sneakily scrolling through tiktok.

SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women currently hold 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less money than men. In most developing countries, more than 65% of women don't have bank accounts and cannot afford to invest in their education. Female refugees also don’t have many opportunities to invest in their education and improve their career horizon - they often work in unskilled, undervalued, and low-paid informal sectors.

SheCodes is here to help provide women in developing countries and women who are refugees with the opportunity to learn how to code for free. SheCodes offers a solid introduction to product development, product design and product management.
