Queen's Story I decided to use my gap year as a period to learn a high income skill so that I can change my situation. I did a research about possible high income skills that I could learn and coding was one of the top skills that were highly recommended, through my research I also learned that it was possible to get into tech by learning how to code. I then decided to download an app that taught me the basics of coding, I was really scared and nervous because I didn’t know anything about coding but to my suprise, I really enjoyed it and since then I have been looking for a platform that would equip me with the skills I need in order to build a successful career in tech and I’m glad I came across this platform I truly believe that SheCodes will help me in this journey, I know it won’t be easy but I am willing to put in the work and to take on the challenges that will come with this journey.

🙋‍♀️ Queen's Motivation

This year has really not been easy for me, I lost my funding and as I result I had to take a gap year. As discouraged as I was I made a decision that I will use this time to learn a high income skill so I can raise the funds I need to go back to school next year and to also provide a better life for myself and my family. Long story short I came across a lady on tick-tock who was in a similar situation as mine but was able to transition into tech without any prior experience and qualification through the SheCodes program. I immediately went into their website and I as I was browsing through I came across testimonies of several other women across the world whose lives were changed drastically through this program, I was really inspired and I then decided to apply, I strongly believe that learning coding with SheCodes will really help me achieve the goals I have set for myself and I can’t wait to get started.

🤹‍♀️ Queen's Hobbies

I am a fitness enthusiast, I truly believe that my health is my wealth therefore I enjoy taking care of my health through working out, eating healthy and just staying active. I also enjoy reading, spending time with my loved ones and lastly I love learning new things and challenging myself.

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.
