PETUNIA 's Story I first became interested in coding when I realized how powerful technology is in shaping the way we communicate, work, and solve problems. As someone who is passionate about creativity and digital media, I became curious about how websites, apps, and online platforms are built. This curiosity led me to explore the basics of coding, and I was fascinated by how a few lines of code could create something interactive and functional. What really sparked my interest was seeing how coding can be used not just for tech products, but also in fields like journalism, social media, and design—areas I’m passionate about. I started watching coding tutorials and reading success stories of women who transitioned into tech through programs like SheCodes, and I realized that learning to code could give me both creative freedom and valuable career opportunities.

🙋‍♀️ PETUNIA 's Motivation

My motivation for learning how to code with SheCodes stems from a desire to become more digitally empowered and career-ready in an increasingly tech-driven world. I want to develop practical coding skills that will allow me to build websites, understand the logic behind digital tools, and open up new professional opportunities in fields such as communication, media, and technology. As someone who values creativity and problem-solving, I see coding as both a technical and creative outlet. I’m particularly inspired by SheCodes’ mission to make coding accessible to women, and I’m excited to be part of a supportive learning community that empowers women to enter and thrive in the tech space. Ultimately, I believe that learning how to code will not only boost my confidence and digital literacy, but also position me to make a meaningful impact in any industry I choose to work in.

🤹‍♀️ PETUNIA 's Hobbies

I enjoy spending quality time with my family and find peace in cleaning and keeping my space organized. I don’t have many hobbies, but I value a calm routine and meaningful moments at home. These simple things help me stay grounded and focused.

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.
