As a seasoned entrepreneur with over 25 years of experience in finance and technology, I founded and lead Hatch Coding, a company that teaches kids how to code. I have a dual degree in finance and computer science from the University of Pennsylvania, and I leverage my skills and knowledge to create a multi-year progressive curriculum that covers over 600 projects, from beginner to advanced levels. My mission is to empower the next generation of innovators and problem-solvers with the skills and mindset they need to succeed in the digital world.At Hatch Coding, I oversee the strategic direction, operations, and growth of the company, which has reached thousands of students across Canada and beyond. I have built a team of talented and dedicated instructors, mentors, and developers who deliver high-quality online and in-person coding programs. I also establish partnerships with schools, libraries, and community organizations to promote coding education and digital literacy among children and youth. I value diversity, collaboration, and excellence in everything I do, and I strive to create a culture that fosters these values at Hatch Coding.
