Boitumelo's Story I first became interested in coding through my university studies, where I saw how technology shapes nearly every field and realized how powerful coding can be for problem-solving and creativity. Initially, I was drawn to coding for the logical thinking it requires, and soon enough, I was hooked by the idea that I could build tools, automate processes, and create projects that could make a real impact. Seeing how coding could complement my background in chemistry and computer science also opened my eyes to new possibilities. It wasn’t just about understanding how things worked but about creating solutions from scratch. The more I learned, the more I saw coding as a skill that would help me innovate and adapt, both in my studies and future career.

Whether it's exploring something tech-related, reading up on new topics, or working on a hands-on project, I’m always drawn to activities that let me think outside the box and grow.

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.
