Kick off your career in tech in the place where it all started for our co-founder, and crafty coder Michele Costa. "I never imagined I would work for a tech company, let alone be the co-founder of one. However, some years ago, while working on my blog, I realized I wanted it to be more customized. I took a basic CSS / HTML course from Girl Develop It and it shifted how I think about EVERYTHING and how I approach things in my business. That course became the foundation for building blocks that would lead me to look at code as a craft and as a way to solve challenges and pain points in my business." #heygosadi #Womenintech #founderstories #Craftycoder #techcommunity #GirlDevelopIt
