Thanks Andy! Mentoring through Our Time For Tech is most rewarding when I see our fellows gain confidence and boldness over their Tech careers. šŸ˜

Imposter syndrome is usually at a high for our early-career fellows, and they come in with self-doubt and insecurities about their tech skills.

As I work with our fellows, I try to dispel myths and demonstrate the realities of learning-to-code, and that the trajectory is anything BUT a smooth, upwards-sloping curve. šŸ˜
