Kylie Rutwama's Story The onset of covid-19 and the global lockdowns that followed exposed how unskilled I was to survive another uncertain situation. I lost my job during the lockdown and then while sitting at home, I realized that I had no skill whatsoever to fall back on. I immediately wanted to change that. I envied how people in the tech sector kept working remotely amidst all the chaos and I immediately wanted a career switch. After some research, I found something I enjoy, I fell in love with frontend development.

🙋‍♀️ Kylie Rutwama's Motivation

I came across SheCodes while searching for resources and mentors to help me with my transition into Frontend development. I won't lie, I loved and still love the fact that not only is it free but also comes with an opportunity to learn and be guided by some of the best instructors in this field which is a blessing for someone like me who can't afford tech boot camp. I was also highly motivated by a success story of a 23-year-old African lady who landed a remote job as a junior developer in less than 6 months after joining SheCodes. I want to thrive as a front-end developer and be able to financially support myself.

🤹‍♀️ Kylie Rutwama's Hobbies

Uganda is blessed with two seasons i.e. the wet and dry seasons. When the rains set in, I love to spend my time indoors watching movies, documentaries and reading. When it is bright and sunny outside, I love restaurant hoping so I can try out different cuisines. I also love travelling and I'm currently learning how to swim.

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.
