Karien's Story I’ve been interested in coding since I was little, as I was always fascinated by how technology works. Growing up, I was inspired by my father, who owns his own tech company, which exposed me to the world of technology early on. This curiosity led me to pursue a BSc in Computer Science, where I’m deepening my knowledge and developing my skills to become a software engineer.

🙋‍♀️ Karien's Motivation

My motivation for learning how to code with SheCodes comes from my passion for technology and my goal of becoming a software engineer. I appreciate SheCodes’ structured learning approach, hands-on projects, and supportive community, which provide a great environment for building practical coding skills. Additionally, I’m excited about the opportunity to gain industry-relevant experience and enhance my problem-solving abilities.

🤹‍♀️ Karien's Hobbies

Outside of coding and studying Computer Science, I enjoy exploring new technologies, working on personal projects, and learning about AI. I also like participating in virtual experiences and tech workshops to expand my skills. In my free time, I enjoy reading, problem-solving challenges, and staying active with hobbies that keep me creative and engaged.
