mihiret's Story My interest in coding was sparked by its potential to change the world. Back in eighth grade, I worked with my friends to develop a library management system for our school. It was a real-world problem we were solving, and seeing our project come to life made me realize how powerful coding could be. That experience solidified my belief that coding is a powerful tool for change. I saw firsthand how technology could address practical challenges and improve everyday life.

🙋‍♀️ mihiret's Motivation

In a world where women are increasingly breaking barriers, I'm driven by the belief that we can do anything. Learning She Code isn't just about coding, it's about challenging limitations and proving that women are capable of leading in any field, including technology. This belief isn't just a theory for me; it's a lived experience. I see strong, capable women in my family, community, and throughout history who inspire me to strive for greatness. The lack of representation in STEM fields is something I want to change. Learning to code through She Code will not only empower me, but it will contribute to breaking down gender stereotypes. Coding skills open doors to exciting career opportunities and financial independence, allowing women to be active players in shaping the future of technology. I believe that women are essential to creating technology solutions that reflect the diverse needs of our world. By learning She Code, I'm not just acquiring skills, I'm actively contributing to a future where women are represented at every level of the tech industry. Together, we can create a world where every woman has the opportunity to thrive and innovate.

🤹‍♀️ mihiret's Hobbies

My hobbies include reading, coding, and singing, writing fiction in amharic . I find joy in exploring different worlds through literature, creating something new with code, and expressing myself through music. Beyond my passions, I also have a traditional Ethiopian skill called "Ejisira," which adds a unique cultural element to my repertoire.

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.
