Zahra's Story Well, I think it was 3 years ago when I first got interested in coding as I was watching a Tedtalk hosted by Reshma Saujani. She was talking about how girls are taught to be perfect instead of brave and talked about girls' confidence and performance in coding. I was always curious about coding but that talk made me study HTML5 and CSS myself and face my fears.

🙋‍♀️ Zahra's Motivation

I've always loved working and being independent. I started working as soon as I finished high school(at the age of 18). First I taught English for two years which I truly loved. Then I learned SEO, HTML5, and CSS by myself using NeilPatel and W3SCHOOL websites. Wanted to work in that field but ended up working in the R&D section of a blockchain company which was not a good experience:))). Then It's been 8 months that I am working as a project manager in a PR agency. During all this time I always dreamed about coding. So, now here I am shooting another shot in coding, and hope this one's gonna work.

🤹‍♀️ Zahra's Hobbies

I love books and movies and helps me have also a lot of me-time. Hanging out with my family and friends cheers me up, too. I really love learning. I also try to get familiar with other languages in my free time.

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.
