May Mon's Story My interest in coding was gradual. After high school, I worked as a finance assistant, where my main scope of work revolved around accounting software. I also acted as the contact person for the agency, where I identified errors in the system and worked with their customer support team to solve them. I found the technology behind it interesting. Much later on, I came to work as a Marketing Associate at a start-up non-banking financial institution, where I had the opportunity to participate in a credit app project as one of the stakeholders. Although I was involved in the creative design part of the project, I learned a lot from my fellow project members as well as from communicating with the app developer team. This was sort of a turning point for me. I decided to pursue a career in Information Technology and coming across sheCodes I did not think twice before applying. I have no doubt this opportunity would help me gain experience and level up in my career.

🙋‍♀️ May Mon's Motivation

In the hopes of becoming a part of the sheCodes team and to pursue a career in Information Technology. I believe this would give me a strong foundation in coding.

🤹‍♀️ May Mon's Hobbies

I enjoy doing outdoor activities. During the weekends I usually go to the gym or go swimming. I also practice on my graphic design skills and crochet gifts as my creative outlet. On the weekdays after my nine-to-five, I spend most of my free time watching movies or reading books.

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.
