Maryam 's Story A friend My motivation for coding came from plain old curiosities. I wanted to know how computers worked, I wanted to understand the magic, and once I started learning it was like I was a god. I was a god that could create his own universe, and instruct the universe to act in the ways that I deemed fit. I could come up with an idea, and shape that idea into something real. I enjoy the mental challenge of making things. It’s frustrating, but if you have an end goal in mind, and have the persistence to see it through then you can get past the frustration and enjoy the win of seeing your idea come into fruition. Plus I love to learn so why not.

🙋‍♀️ Maryam 's Motivation

Improve your job skills To provide a better life for my family. And to also inculcate tech knowledge into young girls like myself. I want to make more money , want more autonomy in my life , I want to be in a profession where I am utilizing my problem solving skills and I am creating products that people value. I want to one day own my own business. I really hate people micromanaging and that micromanaging isn’t as big of an issue in the software development profession. I like learning new technologies and I like learning in general and a software engineer is always learning about new technologies.

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.
