Code in the park

Had the opportunity to be at Code in the Park on Saturday. A great event, spearheaded by Vivid and General Assembly, with sponsors including Yahoo7. I love these kinds of initiatives, really pushing and encouraging people to get involved with coding and technology. You know, we're living in a world that is being rebuilt by software, and we're in at the ground floor.

Code is a great equalizer - as long as we let people embrace it. 

I think it was beautiful to see a really balanced line up of speakers, with a lot of inspiring women on the panel and as presenters. That's a big step forward for tech, and I think it was so positive. Shout outs to Sarah Moran from Girl Geek Academy, who killed it.
