Ashly 's Story "My interest in coding sparked during my college years, where I was studying graphic design. As I delved deeper into the world of visual communications, I realized that coding was an essential skill to enhance my designs and bring them to life. My professors introduced me to the basics of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and I was fascinated by the endless possibilities of creating interactive and dynamic designs. Through coursework and personal projects, I began to explore the intersection of graphic design and coding. I learned how to code responsive websites, create animations, and even experiment with generative art. This fusion of creativity and technical skills opened up new avenues for me, and I became eager to continue learning and growing as a designer-coder. Now, I'm excited to further develop my coding skills and explore the vast opportunities in the tech industry. I'm confident that my background in graphic design will provide a unique perspective, and I'm looking forward to combining my passions for art, design, and technology."

🙋‍♀️ Ashly 's Motivation

"I'm excited to learn coding skills with SheCodes because I'm passionate about technology and its potential to drive positive change. I believe that coding skills will not only enhance my career prospects but also enable me to create innovative solutions that can impact people's lives. I'm particularly drawn to SheCodes because of its mission to support women in tech. As a [woman/non-binary individual], I've often felt underrepresented in the tech industry, and I appreciate SheCodes' commitment to providing a supportive community and resources tailored to women's needs. Through SheCodes, I hope to gain a solid foundation in coding principles, build a network of like-minded women, and ultimately pursue a career in tech that aligns with my values and passions. I'm excited to take the first step in this journey and contribute to a more diverse and inclusive tech industry."

🤹‍♀️ Ashly 's Hobbies

"I enjoy exploring visual art, from painting and drawing to digital illustration and graphic design. I find inspiration in vibrant colors, textures, and patterns. Creating art allows me to express myself, relax, and tap into my imagination, sparking new ideas and creativity."

The SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women hold only 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less than men. In many developing countries, over 65% of women lack bank accounts, making it difficult to invest in their education.

The SheCodes Foundation is changing that. We provide women in developing countries with free coding education, equipping them with the skills to build a better future. In partnership with SheCodes, we offer training in product development, design, and management, empowering women to thrive in the tech industry.
