Jessica's Story I got interested in coding out of pure curiosity. I kept hearing about tech and how people were building websites and apps, and it made me wonder how all of that actually works. One day I started watching videos about web development, and it just clicked. I loved the idea of creating something from scratch using just a computer. That’s when I knew I wanted to learn it for real and build something of my own one day.

🙋‍♀️ Jessica's Motivation

My motivation to learn how to code with SheCodes comes from my desire to build a better future for myself and make an impact in my community. As a young woman from Nigeria, I’ve seen how digital skills can open up global opportunities, especially in tech. I want to become a skilled web developer so I can work remotely, support myself financially, and eventually create solutions that address problems people face every day—like access to information and small business tools. SheCodes is my top choice because it’s beginner-friendly, supportive of women, and offers a scholarship to those of us who can’t afford it otherwise. I’m ready to commit and grow through this opportunity.

🤹‍♀️ Jessica's Hobbies

For fun, I like listening to music and just chilling out with my favorite songs. Sometimes I watch YouTube videos—usually things about tech or just funny stuff to make me laugh. When I have time, I enjoy trying out new things on my phone or just relaxing and scrolling through social media.

The Delac 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 Delac 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.
