Mmathabo Bless's Story My interest in Coding was sparked in Design class where I found myself being very curious about how software such as Adobe which we use in Design was created and how it could be improved to make the design process more convenient. My appreciation for design, its principles, and the creativity it entails have inspired me to want to learn more about the software I use. It was cemented by a TikTok sensation named Teboho Nthako who consistently shared content on her journey in coding and how her life improved after she acquired the skill. Listening to the coding workshop has also added more fuel to my desire to be more informed about coding, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, react, and other aspects of it that affect everyday life.

🙋‍♀️ Mmathabo Bless's Motivation

My motivation for studying coding is to improve my job skills. As a 3rd year communications design student, I believe that having more skills will make me more appealing in the job market. Additionally, this skill is highly important in such a tech-savvy world and has many opportunities to offer that could possibly better my way of life. I do not only wish to be a communications designer; I wish to also be a front-end developer with amazing creative insight and the ability to code the software used to design.

🤹‍♀️ Mmathabo Bless's Hobbies

Writing poetry, reading, and painting are my hobbies. If I am not working on the above I spend my time on social media going through content or on Spotify indulging in music.

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.
