Kamogelo's Story I first became interested in coding when my best friend studied it and told me of all the amazing things she was able to do because of it - create a website, develop an app and other things. These were all part of her group assignments. I had a mini project like that where I had to develop a game as a group project , I thought it was cool but didn't thinking of pursuing it as a job skill. The last year when I was still in school staying in a student house , one of my house mates would work on code everyday and that's when I engaged her about coding and I would see what she does and also knowing that that is now what is required in the job market , I would like to pursue it profesionally .

🙋‍♀️ Kamogelo's Motivation

I would love to learn how to code with SheCodes because I would love to improve my job skills as the world is moving more into integrating programming languages into the working atmosphere . I studied Finance and Investments and would love to know how to integrating coding into my everyday working skills as some job require you to learn how to code. I believe SheCodes is perfect for a young woman who would love to learn to code because SheCodes not only offers comprehensive curriculum and expert guidance but also the sense of community and support that permeates every aspect of the program.

🤹‍♀️ Kamogelo's Hobbies

For fun I enjoy playing crossword puzzles and chess. I am very active and love participating in squash, table tennis and netball amongst other sports. When I am at home I enjoy watching series - crime / detective series and psychological series as well. If not that , I spend a lot of time with my friends and family celebrating each other and spending time together.

SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women currently hold 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less money than men. In most developing countries, more than 65% of women don't have bank accounts and cannot afford to invest in their education. Female refugees also don’t have many opportunities to invest in their education and improve their career horizon - they often work in unskilled, undervalued, and low-paid informal sectors.

SheCodes is here to help provide women in developing countries and women who are refugees with the opportunity to learn how to code for free. SheCodes offers a solid introduction to product development, product design and product management.
