MARIA's Story When I was about 9 years old I used to sit in front of the computer for hours discovering "how internet works" and "how pages are built", inspecting the code behind the pages functionalities and everything. But only 1 year ago, when I was 26 years old, that I had the chance to really start studying programming languages.

🙋‍♀️ MARIA's Motivation

Learning programming is such an amazing skill to acknowledge these days, especially when we think about the gender gap that continues to be part of most of the tech companies. So learning programming allows us to do much more than learn to code, but also to pursue financial independence, learn about empowerment, independence, problem solving. It gives us skills to change the structure of society in search of building an equal and fair world where women also have the courage to pursue their dreams and goals through code lines.

🤹‍♀️ MARIA's Hobbies

I love to read, to travel, to spend time with my family, friends and pets. I also like to learn things for fun, like art crafts: Embroidering, watercolor paintings, hand weaving and things like that.

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.
