Faranak's Story In high school, I got to know a programming teacher who taught me how to code in C++(he wasn't my teacher in high school, they don't teach programming in schools in Iran or even computer-related fields for that matter). I can't describe the feeling when I wrote my first "sum two inputs" program and got the output. I felt like a GOD :)) I loved the idea of creating things and making them better.

🙋‍♀️ Faranak's Motivation

I'm not new to the programming world, but I'm a total noob in front-end development and data, and look forward to being good in that fields. actually, I think I made a mistake by choosing the back-end development but Here in Iran, we don't have good companies to work for and you can't just erase your resume from one experience and go and follow your interests. you should stick to your experiences because this is not the land of "following your interests". but here I am, don't what everyone told me not to do. I want to learn what I like.

🤹‍♀️ Faranak's Hobbies

Actually, I'm learning how to draw and animate beside the programming and let me tell you it is NOT easy to learn two totally different things simultaneously!!! :p but I managed to do it somehow :)) I'm a kickboxer too and I also create little crafty things like dolls, knitting hats, scarfs, and bracelets, ...

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.
