Nevertheless, Julie Coded

I code because...

It's a skill no one can take away from me. In my full time job, I'm given autonomy and creativity to solve problems. And since I work from home, I have time to enjoy whatever I want! It's so cool to build my own networks, firewalls, VPN into microprocessors.

I deserve credit for...

going from a bubble tea waitress to holding a position as a Senior Software Developer in one year.

I hope to see my tech community...

include more technical female communities. I live in a big city that doesn't have a strong tech presence. Many female-oriented tech meetups are not as technical as I would like them to be. A "Women Who Code" chapter is opening up today that aims to bring more talks focused on tech and not on gender diversity.
