Siddhi's Story My journey into coding began with sheer curiosity. Growing up in a household where technology wasn’t the norm, I stumbled upon programming through online resources. I was fascinated by how a few lines of code could bring ideas to life. During my first year of college, I immersed myself in competitive programming, app development, and machine learning, exploring every opportunity I could find to quench the thirst I had for problem-solving. However, without proper mentorship, I often found myself lost, struggling to navigate the vast world of technology. Over time, I realized that coding wasn’t just about writing programs—it was about solving problems and creating impact. This realization fueled my passion, leading me to contribute to open-source projects and work on real-world applications. Now, I want to refine my skills and build a strong foundation with SheCodes, ensuring that I not only grow as a developer but also help others break into tech. I want to create solutions with my skills that I learn here to make tech accessible to individuals like me who are curious enough to take this leap.
My motivation for learning to code with SheCodes stems from my deep passion for technology and my desire to bridge the gender gap in the tech industry. I would also like to get equipped with new skills for my future job search through this program. Despite facing challenges as a woman in tech, I have persistently pursued software development, contributing to open-source projects and continuously enhancing my skills. However, structured learning opportunities that cater to women are rare, and SheCodes offers an incredible chance to refine my coding skills in a supportive and inclusive environment. This scholarship would enable me to learn industry-relevant technologies, build real-world projects, and gain confidence in my technical abilities. Ultimately, I aim to use this knowledge to mentor and inspire other women, proving that technology is a space where we all belong.
When I’m not coding, I love exploring new technologies, reading about AI advancements, and contributing to open-source projects. I also enjoy writing—whether it's technical blogs or reflections on my journey in tech. Beyond that, I love playing strategy-based games, solving puzzles, listening to music, reading books and engaging in discussions about innovation and problem-solving.
