Ireny's Story My interest in coding started at school when I didn't really know what it was, as we didn't have a discipline completely dedicated to it. I really enjoyed solving problems presented in class, I spent time creating various solutions to problems, using various methods. My math teacher always said you had a knack for engineering, while others always said you had a knack for computers. At the end of high school, my teacher suggested that I study science and technology, but I was more insecure so I chose a safer option. desire to change, but the conditions didn't allow me, but now I really want to learn and I think this would be the perfect opportunity. I really wanted to explore this side of me, train my mind, solve problems, pay attention to details, develop analytical skills, have new opportunities, be able to change areas, have a more flexible job, work in a team.

And I would especially love to learn from SheCodes because, I've been looking at various bootcamps and videos of people talking about each one and this one specifically caught my attention because of its focus on women and all its motivation in the fight to fight gender inequality. gender in the sector, I wanted to be one more to contribute to this.
