Maria Paula's Story I had to take some classes that involved coding with R, and I struggled with it, often relying on peers to complete my assignments. However, I realized much of the fieldwork I was doing could be represented by these models, and I wanted to learn how to code but didn't know where to start. As a researcher, I did my homework. I discovered from my friend Eleni Hernandez, who already is your student, that SheCodes is one of the best programs for learning how to code from scratch, especially as a woman.

🙋‍♀️ Maria Paula's Motivation

When I first started my education, I used to hate coding because I couldn't understand it, and I would feel noncompetent because I just couldn't make sense of it. As I progressed in my journey in science, I realized coding was a fundamental part of it, realizing what happens in the biological world can only be fully explained with coding tools. I became fascinated by it; it was like discovering another world, and I decided once and for all I wanted to be really proficient in it.

🤹‍♀️ Maria Paula's Hobbies

I love cinema; I'm really passionate about it, from analyzing the dialogues to geeking over the soundbands and reading about the photography. Also, snorkeling and diving, art, social work and learning anything science-related.

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.
