Women Learning Tech is inspired by Ladies Learning Code, Girl Develop It and Skillcrush, organizations that are all working to bring more tech learning and teaching to women and girls. I'm passionate about getting girls interested in technology and computer science as possibilities for their future. I'm always looking for female role models and mentors to get involved as well. However, I've found in Charlottesville, there is a dearth of female programmers and engineers. Women Learning Tech provides a safe and beginner-friendly environment to learn new tech skills.
