Franca's Story I first became interested in coding when I realised how much tech powers the world around us. I’d see websites, apps, and digital platforms and think. I want to know how that works and how I can build something like it. The idea that I could create something meaningful from just lines of code really pulled me in. I was introduced to this field by a friend who is a website developer.

🙋‍♀️ Franca's Motivation

I want to build real things that solve real problems. I’ve always been curious about how websites and apps work behind the scenes, and now I want to be the one creating them. SheCodes will give me that solid, supportive space to grow my skills and confidence, especially as a woman stepping into tech. I’m excited to challenge myself and create impact. Since the tech field is lucrative, I believe gaining the required knowledge will help me come up with solutions that will in turn enhance my financial ability.

🤹‍♀️ Franca's Hobbies

I love to watch movies, identify problems (opportunities ) around me and brainstorm and come up with solutions.

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.
