Xenel's Story During 2020, just as Covid started, I found myself wanting to do something productive with my time. At this point I have been unemployed for almost two years. So I started searching for free resources online that I could use to teach myself how to code. Now I want to level up my skills and knowledge in order for me to find a stable job so that I can look after myself and my mother and be financially free.

🙋‍♀️ Xenel's Motivation

It has always been my dream to pursue a career in IT. SheCodes is just the right platform for me to start my journey as they would empower me by improving my skills that would help me create a better life for myself and my family.

🤹‍♀️ Xenel's Hobbies

I love to read books, exploring different winefarms and spend time at the beach. I also enjoy doing art like painting different clay objects as well as photography.

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.
