Lillian's Story My interest in coding started when I realized how powerful technology is in transforming industries, including healthcare and scientific research. During my studies in health sciences, I often encountered data-driven research, bioinformatics tools, and digital healthcare solutions that relied on coding and programming. This sparked my curiosity about how software and data analysis work behind the scenes. As I explored more, I became fascinated by the logic and creativity involved in coding. The ability to build solutions, automate processes, and analyze complex data inspired me to start learning. Now, as I transition into the tech industry, I see coding as a valuable skill that will allow me to combine my scientific background with technology to drive innovation and problem-solving.

🙋‍♀️ Lillian's Motivation

As a Bachelor of Health Science Honours graduate, I have always been passionate about problem-solving and using data-driven approaches to improve outcomes, particularly in the healthcare and life sciences sectors. My motivation for learning how to code with SheCodes stems from my desire to bridge the gap between health sciences and technology. Technology plays a crucial role in advancing research, streamlining healthcare processes, and improving data management. By developing coding skills, I aim to transition into the tech industry, where I can leverage my background in pharmacology, microbiology, and biochemistry to contribute to innovative solutions in health tech, bioinformatics, or data analysis. SheCodes provides an accessible and structured learning environment that will help me build a strong foundation in coding and problem-solving, empowering me to explore new opportunities in the tech space. Ultimately, I see coding as a valuable tool that will enhance my career prospects and enable me to make a meaningful impact at the intersection of health and technology.

🤹‍♀️ Lillian's Hobbies

In my free time, I enjoy a balance of creative and analytical activities. I love reading, solving puzzles, and playing logic-based games that challenge my problem-solving skills in an engaging way. I also enjoy listening to music, watching documentaries, and spending time outdoors to relax and recharge.

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.
